The British Lying-in Hospital, Endell Street.
The hygienic condition of this lying-in hospital during the
past year has been most satisfactory; there has again been
an entire absence of puerperal fever from the wards.
The medical staff report that 148 women were delivered
in the Hospital, of these all recovered with one exception,
who died from Bright's disease. 149 children were born,
of whom 6 were stillborn.
In the out-patient department there were 600 deliveries,
with one maternal death from heart disease and bronchitis.
Deaths in Public Institutions.

I receive by arrangement from the office of the RegistrarGeneral
a weekly return of the deaths of parishioners belonging
to St. Giles district occurring in the general hospitals
in the metropolitan area.
