24 Report of the Medical Officer of Health.
In the next Table the number of deaths in Institutions outside
the Borough is given in detail, but a complete list of these Institutions
with the number of deaths that occurred in each during the
year, is given in Table XC.
As the Borough is dealt with as one Sanitary District the
deaths of persons belonging to other parishes in the Borough in
Institutions such as the Fever Hospital, Tooting, are considered
to be deaths in Internal Institutions with regard to the whole
Borough, and are not included in the following Table. The same
applies to deaths in the Hostel of God, Clapham, the Tooting Home,
the Workhouse, the Tooting Bec Asylum, and the Royal Hospital
for Incurables.
