Book Description
Excerpt from London Society, Vol. 67: A Monthly Magazine of Light and Amusing Literature for the Hours of Relaxation; January to June, 1895 People came and went through the thick gloom like unquiet shades in Erebus. The gas lamps gave forth a sickly yellow gleam only to make the surrounding darkness more visible. Men long familiar with London streets and thoroughfares found themselves wandering hopelessly about amid the Stygian gloom. Up the City courts and alleys silence, as well as darkness, reigned. Men who chanced to find their way up these business centres might easily have imagined themselves alone in a deserted hamlet. Such an illusion, however, would have been quickly dispelled had they chanced to mount one particular stair in Cowl Court, hard by the Stock Exchange.
