Deaths.—The number of deaths assigned to the Borough
is 1,502. Although this total exceeds the number recorded in
the previous year by 68, the actual mortality, as evidenced by
the death-rate per thousand of population is less. The deathrate
for the year under review is 9.6 per thousand of population
compared with the rate of 9.9 recorded in 1936. The death-rate
for the Borough is well below the death-rate of 12.4 for England
and Wales.
