the neighbouring boroughs were equally attacked with Islington. It should be
stated that 929 cases of the disease were notified by the teachers of the public
elementary schools in the first quarter, and 664 in the second quarter, and that
they then fell to 41 in the third quarter and 33 in the fourth, making a total of
1,667 cases notified during the year.
During the whole course of the disease a close watch was kept on each of
the schools, and children who had the disease in their homes and who had not
themselves previously suffered from it were excluded. The following statement
shows the number of children excluded from the various schools on account of
measles in their homes. The letters I. B. G.J. M. respectively indicate infants,
