Excerpt from Weekly Bulletins of Mass, State Board of Health, 1889For the Week ending January 9, 1897. Deaths reported to the State Board of Health in 30 Cities and Greater Towns.The number of deaths reported each week does not exactly correspond with the number which occurred during that week, but the discrepancy is a slight one in mos-t cases. The mortality report will in future be published weekly, and will contain the returns from all cities and towns having a population of more than inhabitants. A monthly report will also be issued, to contain the returns from all reporting towns for the month.We shall esteem it a great favor if all reporting towns will send us their returns weekly, as heretofore, upon postal cards provided for the purpose. A supply of these cards will be sent to any town clerk or health officer who has charge of such returns and is willing to comply with this request.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
