    5 I. VITAL STATISTICS. The Borough of Lambeth contains 4079.6 statute acres, exclusive of 82.1 tidal water, 0.8 inland water, and 31.1 fore shore, with an estimated total population of 310,359 persons to the middle of 1904, consisting of 146,868 males and 163,491 females, or an excess of 16,623 females. The total estimated increase (1903-1904) of the population is 2,648, but the natural increment, i.e., the excess of births over deaths (uncorrected) is 3,901, so that an exodus of 1,253 in excess of those who came into the Borough during 1904 must be assumed. The estimated Populations of the Borough of Lambeth to the middle of 1904 may be tabulated as follow:— Estimated Populations. (Estimated, Middle 1904.) I. Wards. Wards. Males. Females. Total.
