THE DEATH-RATE.
The total number of deaths registered during the year 1914
is 4,630 as compared with yearly averages of 5,669.5 and 4,971.5
respectively during the two decennia 1891-1900 and 1901-1910.
Of the total 4,630 deaths registered during 1914, 2,386 are males
and 2,244 females.
The uncorrected death-rate for Lambeth is, therefore, 15.6
per 1,000 inhabitants (16.8 males and 14.5 females). These rates,
are, however, uncorrected, and, on analysing the 4,630 deaths
registered in the Borough, it is found that 1,008 represent deaths
occurring within the Borough amongst persons not belonging
thereto. These deaths are to be deducted, but, on the other hand,
there are 647 deaths registered outside the Borough of persons
belonging thereto, and these must be added, giving a corrected
number of deaths for Lambeth during 1914 of 4,269, and a corrected
death-rate of 14.4 per 1,000 inhabitants.
The yearly averages of corrected deaths within the Parish
and Borough of Lambeth during the two decennia, 1891-1900
(Parish), and 1901-1910 (Borough), are, respectively, 5,405.3 and
4,709.6.
