Notes.—This Table is arranged to show the gross births and deaths in the district, and the births and deaths properly
belonging to it with the corresponding rates. For years before 1911 some of the corrected rates probably will not be available.
The rates should be calculated per 1,000 of the estimated gross population. In a district in which large Public Institutions
for the sick or infirm seriously affect the statistics, the rates in Columns 5 and 13 may be calculated on a nett population,
obtained by deducting from the estimated gross population the average number of inmates not belonging to the district in
such institutions.
*In Column 6 are to be included the whole of the deaths registered during the year as having actually occurred within
the district.
In Column 12 is to be entered the number in Column 6, corrected by subtraction of the number in Column 8, and by
addition of the number in Column 9. Deaths in Column 10 are to be similarly corrected by subtraction of the deaths under
1, included in the number given in Column 8, and by addition of the deaths under 1 included in the number given in
Column 9.
Area of District in acres (exclusive of area covered by water), 28,799.
At Census of 1911:—Total population at all ages, 21,958; number of inhabited houses, 4,845; average number of persons
per house, 4.5.
