Note. In calculating the Medians, the entries have been taken as referring to the middle of the squares in which they stand. The reason
why the headings run 62.2, 63.2, &c., instead of 62.5, 63.5, &c., is that the observations are unequally distributed between 62 and 63, 63
and 64, &c., there being a strong bias in favour of integral inches. After careful consideration, I concluded that the headings, as adopted,
best satisfied the conditions. This inequality was not apparent in the case of the Mid-parents. Source: F. Galton, "Regression towards
Mediocrity in Hereditary Stature", Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland, vol.15 (1885), p.248.
