* Westbourne Terrace, Hyde Park Square, Kensington Gardens Square.
In my report of 1871, I gave the "composition" of
certain streets, and compared death rates.
I have again done so, and much regret to find
the comparison, as might be expected shows a
higher death-rate in some streets, than the general rate
of the parish, but it is far less than most of the tenanthouse
population throughout the metropolis generally.
It will be seen from the preceding tables that there
are nearly three thousand dwelling houses under regular
inspection. This does not include the mewses and
stables of the parish, which are under the charge of
