Which gives a total gain to the parish of G15 in excc.33 of the fatality.
The total number of deaths from diseases of the zymotic or infectious
class has been, Brompton 49 ; Kensington 325, which is but slightly in
exccss over 1863, whilst Small Pox has sunk from 49 to 5. This must
be considered very satisfactory, as shewing that this disease, which threatened
such progress last year, has entirely abated. With regard to Fever,
the number is about equal with last year. It should be particularly
noticed that in no instance should a typhus case be allowed to remain in
the house where the disease originated; and especially that overcrowding
should, as far as possible, be prevented. This latter is perhaps one of the
greatest difficulties to be contended with in some parts of the parish;
for if removed from one part they tend to overcrowd another.

The total number of Infants who died under 5 years of age was 769.
The following is the list of nuisances reported to your Sanitary Committee,
for which notices for removing or abating the same were ordered
to be served under the "Nuisances Removal Act."
