The Table following contains the Number of Burials and Christenings in the seven Parishes hereafter mentioned, from the year 1636 unto the year 1659^[2] inclusive; all which time the Burials and Christenings were jointly mentioned: the five last years the Christenings were omitted in the yearly Bills. This Table consists of seventeen Columns, the Total of all the Burials being contained in the sixteenth Column: which Number being added to the Total in the precedent Table of Burials and Christenings, makes the Total of every yearly or general Bill. |119|

1. The total requires 6923 here if 3613 and 4443 be assumed to be correct.
2. In the third edition the table was brought down to 1664, but the text stood unchanged.
