HANCOCK NEUROLOGY.
HARVEST OF THE GRIM REAPER
DURING 1898.
AN UNUSUALLY LARGE NUMBER OF
AGED PERSONS PASSED AWAY
FOURTEEN NONAGENARIANS.

THE AMERICAN prints below table
showing the number of deaths occurring
in Hancock county during the year 1898.
This list is complied from returns maue
to the town clerks, aud nearly all the
deaths were reported i'll THE AMERICAN
soon after their occurrence.
The lure of physicians to make re-
turns as required by law becomes sppar-
ent each year in compiling this table.
Several of the town clerks, in reporting
the number Of deaths during the year, do
50 with The qualification: "These are all
that have been sent in by physicians "
One town clerk adds: The physicians
are not very prompt in sending in births
ard deaf hs."
TIL same is true in Ellsworth. THE
AMER CAN keeps complete record Of
d. sths occurring in Ellsworth, and is
therefore able to tell by comparison with
the record kept by the city clerk, just how
many have not been reported and re-
corded. This year The AMERICANS rec
ord shows 81 deaths in Ellsworth. There
is no mistake about this-the record,
with names and dates OF death, is printed
in full below-certainly none are reported
that have not occurred, though possibly
some have been omitted. Yet OF the g.
deaths thus reported, only so are recorded
on the official record kept by the city
clerk.
This is serious matter. 1t is not a
mere QUESTION o. interesting stat Isl les, but
the settlement OF important legal ques-
tions, the disposition OF estates, etc, may
often hang on the records Of birth or
death as shown in the city records. The
records are frequently in demand by in
dividuals in search OF family records.
Therefore it is important that the record
should be complete.
The AMERICAN has before called at
tention to the laxty OF physicians in
reporting deaths and births, as we'll as OF
ministers and justices i'll reporting mar
riages. The law provides a remedy, and
1t is severe one-the very severity of
the penalty for failure to properly and
promptly report is evidence of the i'm
portance which the law attaches to these
records OF vital statistics.
In compiling the following table THE
AMERICAN has compared the record OF
the town clerks with the record as print
ed from week to week in THE AMERICAN.
In some cases more deaths have been re-
ported i'll The AMERICAN than appear i'll
the town clerks reports; in other cases
the report shows that all deat hs have not
been reported to THE AMERICAN during
the year, but i'll many cases the reports
in THE AMERICAN and the figures sent
by the town clerks coincide, showing III
those towns promptness on the part OF
physicians and town clerks in reporting.
The AMERICAN has taken more than
the usuaI care this year to present com
plete report, and the following figures
are approximately correct. The figures
for 1897, given for comparison, may fail
some short OF the actual number, but in
most towns they are correct. This is the
record OF deaths in Hancock county dur
ing 1898:
