FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT
OF
The Medical Officer of Health
FOR THE
GREENWICH DISTRICT,
Presented to the District Board on the 23rd May, 1860.
To the Greenwich District Board of Works.
Gentlemen,
Beyond the continued inspections by your Officers,
and the removal of a large number, principally of surface
nuisances, no sanitary measures of sufficient importance to
bring before your notice, have been carried out in the
District during the past year.
In this, therefore, my Fourth Annual Report, I have only
to lay before your Board the annexed Tables, which I have
prepared for the purpose of clearly illustrating to you the
sanitary condition and mortality of your District during the
year ending the 31st of December, 1859.
Tables Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4, I have so arranged as to point
out to you the Births and Deaths, Males and Females, the
ages at which those deaths took place and the different
diseases causing those deaths, in each separate division of the
District, as they occurred during each month in the year.
Table No. 5, will comprise the whole of the four preceding
monthly Tables condensed into one comprehensive form,
illustrating the Births and Deaths, the ages at death, and
the causes of those deaths during each of the four quarters
