Deaths.
In the 52 weeks 2889 deaths were registered in the Borough of Poplar,
662 deaths having occurred in the Sub-District of Poplar, 1790 in Bromley,
and 417 in Bow ; from the 682 deaths which took place in Poplar there must
be deducted 50 deaths of non-residents, and to the remainder must be
added 438 deaths which occurred in outlying institutions, making a total
of 1070 deaths of Poplar parishioners. Treating the 1790 registered
deaths in Bromley in the same manner, viz., deducting 790 deaths of nonparishioners
and adding 240 deaths in outlying institutions, the deaths to
be assigned to this sub-district will be found to be 1240. From the 417
Bow deaths, there must be deducted 3 non-residents and added 352 deaths
in outlying institutions, making a total of 766 deaths.
In dealing separately with the sub-districts as above, it will be seen by
referring to Tables I., II. and III., that in considering the deaths of nonresidents
and those from outlying institutions, certain additions and
deductions from the sub-districts have to be made in respect of themselves,
but when considering the Borough as a whole, then from the 2889 deaths
which were registered there must be deducted 395 deaths of actual nonresidents
and 582 deaths in institutions entirely outlying must be added,
making a total for the Borough of 3076 upon which the death rate is
calculated.
