Details |
These men who have spent the night on the streets congregate at the door of poor eating houses like this for their one meal a day which will cost half a penny. They receive a hunk of bread, a piece of greasy mutton or other meat and a mug of tea. Having eaten they sleep sitting on benches at the table.
