Croydon Rural District Council
HEALTH REPORT FOR 1910.
Gentlemen,
I beg to submit to you my thirteenth Annual Report
upon the Health and Sanitary condition of the District.
Appended are the statistical tables, the report on
the working of the Factory and Workshops Act, in
accordance with the requirements of the Home Office.
The Death Rate, 8.9 per thousand of population, is
much lower than in any previous year which I have been
your Medical Officer. The Birth Rate is also very low
being '23 0 per thousand of population.
The year 1910, generally speaking, has been a
very healthy one, with no serious outbreaks of epidemic
disease.
It is with pleasure that I have again to place on record
the kind help and assistance which I have received from
the Council and all its officers with whom my work
has brought me into contact.
I have the honour to be,
Your obedient servant,
C. M. FEGEN.
2nd February, 1911.
