MEDICAL OFFICER'S
ANNUAL REPORT.
Gentlemen,
I commence my Annual Report as I
generally do, with quotations from the Registrar
General's Annual Summary; with the object of
placing before you, for comparison with our own
statistics, his results with respect to the populations,
birth-rates, death-rates, and prevalence of the more
important Zymotic or infectious diseases in London
and the several groups of districts into which London
is divided.

Table: The populations of London and its five groups of districts, as determined at the census taken in the early summer of 1881, were as follows:TABLE I.
