Whether the corrected or uncorrected death-rates for the
Borough of Lambeth (as a whole) be taken, they are very satisfactory
for the year 1904, the fourth year of existence of the
newly-formed Borough. Sub-dividing the death-rates amongst
the several Registration Sub-Districts, it will be again noted that
the Inner Districts, e.g., Waterloo, Lambeth Church 1st and 2nd,
have, collectively and individually, suffered more than the Outer
Districts, e.g., Kennington 1st and 2nd, Brixton and Norwood.
So, too, if the death-rates be sub-divided amongst the 9 new
Wards, it will also be noted that the Inner Wards, e.g., Marsh,
Bishop's, Prince's, and Vauxhall, have collectively and individually,

Brixton, Herne Hill, Tulse Hill, and Norwood. Nor is this a

Districts and Wards are more congested than the Outer, and
