10 were of non-parishioners who died in the
Children's Hospital, and 7 were of non-parishioners

To this number must be added the deaths of 120
parishioners in extra-parochial hospitals and public
institutions, making a corrected total of 2,142—1,025
males and 1,117 females—equivalent to an annual
death-rate of 18.0 per 1,000 inhabitants.
The natural increase of population from the excess
of births over deaths was 792, as compared with 842
in the previous year.
Of the 2,142 deaths, 1,632 occurred in St. Mary's
and 510 in St. John's Sub-district.
The subjoined table shows that the deaths were
