Institution Deaths.—Very many of the deaths of St., Marylebone residents
occur in institutions either within or without the Borough, and the accompanying
table which shows where deaths occurred during 1909 is of interest. Attention
may be directed to the large number of nursing and surgical homes in which
deaths are recorded as having occurred. The number shown is, of course, only
a fraction of the total number in existence in the Borough.
