2
persons usually resident without the boundaries of your District.
To the result must be added your proportion of the deaths of
residents in your District, which occurred in Public Institutions
outside it, viz., 250. Thus, 1,344 — 54 = 1290 + 250 = 1,540,
which represents the total mortality of your District during
the year 1880.
The Census having been taken so recently as April last, and a
return (though unrevised) of the result having been made public,
I am in a position to estimate with tolerable accuracy the rates of
birth and mortality in the District.
From this return I gather that the population of the Limehouse
District is 58,500, and is divided among the parishes composing the
District as follows:—
Limehouse 32,004
Ratcliff 15,963
Shadwell and Wapping 10,533
Total 58,500
In 1871 the numbers were as follows:—
Limehouse 29,919
Ratcliff 10,131
Shadwell and Wapping 11,640
