Distribution of Deaths in Sub-Districts and
Parishes.
From the Tables in the Appendix may be seen the
manner in which the deaths were distributed in the
three Registration Districts. Thus, while the death
rate was 26.59 for the whole district, it was only 23.6
in the parish of St. Anne, Soho, but in St Mary-leStrand
Sub-district (which includes St. Paul, Covent
Garden, the Precinct of the Savoy, as well as the
Holywell Ward of St. Clement Danes parish), it rose
to 29.51, and in St. Clement Danes Sub-district it
reached the high figure of 30.66; this is, however,
below the rates of the last two years. When these
figures are divided out among the parishes composing
the district in contra-distinction to the Registration
Sub-divisions, the parishes of St. Clement and St. Mary
exhibit rates which call for serious enquiry.
