"From this table it will be seen that the deaths
"are not only considerably below the average
"deaths of the year, but that they are below the
"average deaths of the season of the year.
"It is, however, to the class of Zymotic diseases
"to which we turn with most anxiety, and here we
"find the following causes of Deaths: Cholera, 6;
"Diarrhoea, 5; Typhus, 3; Measles, 2; Hooping
"Cough, 1; Scarlet Fever, 1; making altogether
"16 deaths. Now the average death from Zymotic
"diseases in our Parish during the last four years
" has been 115, or a little more than two a week.
* In this Table Ch stands for Cholera; Di. for Diarrhæa; M. for Measles; S. F. for
Scarlet Fever; H. C. Hooping Cough; Ty. Typhus Fever,
