Note.—This table is arranged to show the gross births and deaths in the
Borough, and the births and deaths properly belonging to it with the corresponding
rates. The rates are calculated per 1,000 of the estimated population.
In column 6 are included the whole of the deaths, except those of soldiers and
sailors in public institutions, which were registered during the year as having actually
occurred within the Borough. In column 12 is entered the number in column 6
corrected by subtraction of the number in column 8 and by the addition of the
number in column 9. Deaths in column 10 have been similarly corrected by subtraction
of the deaths under one year included in the number given in column 8 and
by addition of the deaths under one year included in the number given in column 9.
"Transferable deaths" are deaths of persons who, having a fixed or usual
residence in England or Wales, die in a district other than that in which they reside.
