REPORT
of the
ACTING MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH
For the Year 1905.
Public Health Department,
7, Belsize Park Gardens,
Hampstead, N.W.,
20th February, 1906.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the Metropolitan
Borough of Hampstead.
Gentlemen,
In accordance with your instructions given on 28th November last,
I have the honour to submit to you the Medical Officer of Health's
Annual Report for the Year 1905.
It is drawn up in accordance with the instructions of the Local
Government Board, and contains a record of the work of the Department
as carried out under the Public Health Committee, during the year
passed.
In the compilation of this Report, I have adhered to the headings
and general outline of previous reports, and as my term of office only
commenced on September 11th, the following Report must necessarily
be restricted to a more or less bare statement of facts and figures. In
this respect, however, it deals with the whole of the year 1905.
Pursuant to instructions sent me by the Local Government Board,
I have utilized the notes and records left by the late Medical Officer of
Health, and it is from such notes that I have compiled the Table of
Flat Dwellers in Hampstead and their effect upon the Vital Statistics of
the Borough.
