4896 deaths, 2508 were males and 2388 females, showing an
excess of 120 males.
The death-rate for Lambeth is, therefore, 15.6 per 1000 inhabitants
(16.9 for males and 14.5 for females), as compared with
15.6 for London (17.1 for males and 14.3 for females). These
rates are, however, uncorrected, and, on analysing the 4896
deaths registered in the Borough of Lambeth, it is found that 736
represent deaths occurring within the Borough amongst
persons not belonging thereto. These deaths are to be deducted,
but, on the other hand, there are 486 deaths registered outside the
Borough of persons belonging thereto, and these must be added,
giving a corrected number of deaths for Lambeth during 1905, of
4646, and a corrected death-rate of 14.8 per 1000 inhabitants, as
compared with 15.1 for London (the total corrected number of
London deaths being 70,442).
