Physician’s report on three deaths, 1895–1896

Connecticut School for Boys / State Reform School

The 1896 physician’s report records three deaths: scarlet fever, drowning, and apparent heart trouble. It gives no names.

Evidence, credit & reuse: The adjoining p.356 identifies the hospital accounting period as October 1895 to October 1896. This is not a death certificate, named death list, burial record, or lifetime death total. Internet Archive metadata: NOT_IN_COPYRIGHT, US; 1912 publication.
