About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ...referred to. In Prussia, 36 (reduced in 1876 to 20); in France, 26; in Belgium, 16.6; and in Hanover, 23.68 per cent. of all deaths were from fever (typhoid?). In Portugal only 3.9 deaths are from typhoid out of every 100 deaths; this is owing to its rarity in the country districts; it is common in Lisbon.
