DEATHS.
The net number of St. Puncras deaths registered during the year was 2,745; this equals
an annual death-rate of 12.7 per 1,000 of population.
The average yearly death-rate of the Borough during the previous five years was 13.0
per 1,000 of population.
The actual number of deaths registered as having occurred in the Borough during the
year 1925 was 2,864. This figure has to be corrected by the exclusion of 680 deaths, which
occurred in the Borough, of persons who were not St. Pancras residents, and by the inclusion
of 561 deaths of residents which occurred and were registered outside the Borough.
The corrected figure of 2,745 is used in calculating the death-rates in this report.
In Table 1, on page 104, will be found details of the corresponding figures for previous
years, and the chart on the opposite page shews in graphic form, the variation in the death-rate
during the last 20 years.
