On taking out the rates for each quarter of the year, it is found (Table 24) that the rate
for the third quarter was the only one in excess of that for the previous year (167 in 1906,
131 in 1905) Even in that quarter the mortality prevailing in some of the wards was lower
last year than in 1905. It would take too much space to call attention to each individual
rate, a reference to the Table last mentioned will make the matter clear, but special
attention should be called to the great increase in the rate for Hyde Park Ward during the
third quarter (298, as compared with 81). The increase during this quarter was due to the
prevalence of infantile, or summer diarrhoea.
