‘Suburbia and infant death in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Adelaide’ by Philippa Mein Smith and Lionel Frost, volume 21 pt. 2 (October 1994) pp. 251-272.
The publisher very much regrets that proof corrections were not incorporated in this article, and it thus included a number of errors.
On page 251, line 20 should read ‘… various institutions which provided research funding and access to material’. In footnote 3, lines 1 and 3, ‘womens’ history’ should read ‘women's history’.
Ten lines were missing that should have been represented on page 267. There were also eight lines repeated on pages 267-268 and an extra footnote 41 placed at the bottom of page 267, with a reference to footnote 42 that in fact refers to footnote 46 on page 268. We reproduce below the corrected text from the beginning of the third paragraph of page 266 to the end of the first paragraph on page 268. The above page references refer to the original article.
