-
They seldom consist of more than one story; the rooms are cramped in area,
and the ceilings low. They have small and inconvenient windows, small fire
places, and as few as them as it has been practicable to allow, the cost
of building chimneys being as far as possible saved. Thus it occurs that
the bedrooms can seldom be ventilated without opening the front doors and
the windows... The ill-enclosed cesspits [are] so near the doors and windows
as to render the air about them quite unfit for breathing.
There is a collection of abominations scarcely credible to those who have not seen them. A roadway raised full 18 inches by accumulated filth, consolidated by traffic... walls rotting away from damp... privies built under cover, where nothing can sweeten the premises in which they are situated - a dank, stuffy and polluted air, sickening and poisonous, pervades it all.
We simply uphold the fact that home influence and early surroundings
mould the character and sway the temperament more than priest or sage,
teacher or philanthropist, ever can, with all their schemes and appliances
to boot.
