The registered deaths were 8 more in number, and the registered
births 28 less than those of last year.
Of the 1894 deaths registered as occurring within the parish
boundaries, 46 died in the Newington Workhouse, Westmoreland
Road. They comprised 19 belonging, as parishioners, to Newington,
and 27 to other parishes of the St. Saviour's Union.
The number of inhabitants belonging to the Parish of Newington
dying away from home, that is, outside our boundaries in
