PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS. 



[anno 1722. 



toJTi of each table is given the total number for each series of years, and like- 

 wise the number that died each year, taken at a medium, one year with another: 

 by which it appears, that the proportion between the number of those that die 

 of the small -pox, and the whole number of burials, is very nearly the same, on 

 an average for each series of years. 



The 14 intermediate years, between 1686 and 1701, are omitted, because in 

 the bills for those years, the accounts of the small-pox and measles are not 

 distinguished, as in the preceding and following years, but are joined together 

 in one article, so that from them no certain account can be drawn of the num- 

 ber of persons that died of the small-pox.
