	WHITELAW’S 1798 CENSUS OF DUBLIN (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Whitelaw was particularly concerned with the density of population not only to highlight the extent of the poorer districts but also to derive mathematical rules of thumb which could be applied to calculate the populations of other comparable European cities.
		Whitelaw was particularly scathing in his comments on the congested ‘ancient parts’ of the city, for which he blamed high rents and the consequent necessity for tenants to sublet.
		Whitelaw was Church of Ireland vicar of the parish of St Catherines, Dublin’s largest and also one of its poorest, corresponding closely to the Earl of Meath’s Liberty, traditional home of the city’s ‘mob’ (or ‘crowd’).
