  1. Table 1 displays the total number of deaths falling into each of the four cohorts during the entire epidemic, for just the French Quarter. The table also displays mortality densities (as output from a kernel density surface) for each cohort. The density of Italian mortalities (1376 per square kilometre) far exceeds those of the other three cohorts.
