appended at the end of the Report, in Tables I., II.,
III. and IV., concerning which a few explanatory
remarks are now given.
Table I.—The population is estimated, as
required, to the middle of the year, and is based
partly on the excess of births over deaths and the
number of new houses built and occupied. The
birth-rates and death-rates are thus calculated upon
a population of 16,460 in the middle of 1904, which
is probably well under the real population, the return
at the Census of 1901 being 15,017. The 195 nett
deaths belonging to your Urban District include the
deaths of 21 who died in the Workhouse Infirmary
formerly resident in this District, 2 at the County
Lunatic Asylum at Brookwood, and 1 at the
Friedenheim Home at Hampstead.
Table II.—Deals with the population, births
and deaths in each of the three localities that go to
form the Urban District.
Table III.—Classifies the notifications of Infectious
Disease as to localities, ages of patients and
removals to the Isolation Hospital, and from this it
will at once be seen whether any special locality has
had a greater incidence of disease than another.
Table IV.—Deals with the causes of death
under various headings and at different age groups,
and in localities at all 'ages.
