DEATHS.
The number of deaths registered in the parish during the year
was 2837 against 2836 in the previous year. This gives an
increase of one, but it includes 140 non-parishioners who have
died in Bethnal Green hospitals, but whose deaths are excluded
from the enumeration. On the other hand I have received
information from the General Register Office of the deaths of 261
inhabitants of Bethnal Green in extra parochial hospitals. These
deaths must be added, and they raise the net total to 2958.
BIRTHS.
The births during the year were 4936 against 4989 in the
preceding year. This gives a decrease of 53. The excess of the
births over the deaths was 1978, as is shewn by the subjoined
table. This is 74 fewer than last year.
