We have not of the Belgrave the same minute information as to
population as we have of the Hanover and Mayfair Sab-Districts.
But we have some which enables us to contrast the mortality of
the richer and poorer classes, to a certain extent. For this purpose
we have taken 5 squares, which belong, par excellence, to
the wealthy classes, and 7 streets which equally belong to the
other class.
