NOTE.—In some instances the number of admissions were exceeded by the deaths + the recoveries; in calculating the per-centages the aggregate of the deaths and recoveries (D. + R.) were in these instances regarded as the number of admissions.

In instances where the proportion of deaths or recoveries approach 100 per cent. the observations have been very few.
