The various rates quoted in this Report for the years 1893 to 1911
are the rates as stated in previous Reports ; they are calculated upon the
then estimated populations, and as far as possible from past Annual
Reports for the Sub-District of Bow figures respecting certain diseases
have been extracted and the rates worked out so that the three subdistricts
might be compared, but the rates in Tables IV., V., VI. and VII.,
have been calculated upon revised estimated populations based upon
the known censuses of 1901 and 1911.
