The table hath been made for the year 1682, wherein is to be noted -
1. That the houses which A.D. 1671 were but 3,850 are, A.D. 1682,
6,025; but whether this difference is caused by the real increase of
housing, or by fraud and defect in the former accounts, is left to
consideration. For the burials of people have increased but from
1,696 to 2,263, according to which proportion the 3,850 houses A.D.
1671 should A.D. 1682 have been but 5,143, wherefore some fault may
be suspected as aforesaid, when farming the hearth-money was in
agitation.
2. The hearths have increased according to the burials, and one-
third of the said increase more, viz., the burials A.D. 1671 were
1,696, the one-third whereof is 563, which put together makes 2,259,
which is near the number of burials A.
