THE STRAND DISTRICT, LONDON.

Deaths at various Age Periods.—The Registrar-General in a
valuable supplement to the 55th Annual Report, has published a
summary of the Mortality Returns for every Registration
District in England and Wales during the 10 years 1881-90.
Registration Districts usually follow the lines of Unions, rather
than those of Sanitary Districts, hence the value is in many cases
considerably reduced. This is especially the case here, as the
Strand District comprises parts of two Unions, I append however,
an extract from this Report showing the relative age mortality of
England, London, and the Strand and Westminster Registration
Districts, because the figures relating to the last two give an
idea of what the figures would be for the Strand Sub-District and
St Anne Sub-District respectively.
