In Table No. 1 will be seen the number of Births and
Deaths as they were registered in each succeeding month,
and which, for facility of reference, I have subdivided into
quarterly columns, and ultimately showing the total amount
of Births and Deaths, the ages at which those Deaths took
place, and the several Diseases causing those Deaths.
In Table No. 2 will be seen the number of Deaths as they
were registered in each month during the past year, throughout
each division of the District.
