The meteorological data are compiled from returns sent us by Mr. Crowther. They are uncorrected readings, made at xo a.m. and 4 p.m. The humidity each week is the average of the humidities calculated on each of the thirteen observations of the wet and dry bulbs. On January 17th, 1906, the barometer was removed into an inner room in which there was a fire. * Includes membranous croup.
