DEATHS AND DEATH-RATE.
The local returns are used for calculating the death-rate,
since the number of deaths registered in and transferred to the
District exceeded the Ministry figure by one, at all ages.
Whole District.
Total, 246 (Males, 1.35; Females, 111) , Rate, 8.2per 1,000.
The total number of deaths registered of persons dying
within the District at all ages and from all causes was 158
(males, 84 , females, 74).
For statistical purposes it is necessary to add to this figure
the deaths of persons from your District who died in the
Hillingdon Infirmary, the various London Hospitals, and
Middlesex County Asylums. These "outside” deaths were 88
in number (males, 51; females, 37).
The total number of deaths, therefore, belonging to the
District is 246, and the death-rate 8.2 per 1,000. The deaths
in Hanwell Asylum were 208 (males, 113; females, 95).
Deaths and Death-rates—East and West Wards.
In the East Ward the deaths registered in the District
were 90 (males, 46; females, 44). The "outside" deaths
numbered 39 (males, 22; females, 17). Total deaths belonging
to this Ward, 129. In the West Ward deaths registered in the
District were 68 (males, 37; females, 31). The "outside"
deaths were 49 (males, 32; females, 17). Total deaths belonging

For the purpose of comparison the following table is
