This edition focuses on various topics, including the lives of costermongers in London, context around significant social changes, and includes narratives about the evolution of street-trading and the socio-economic condition of the working class. It offers insights not only into the economic activities of these traders but also touches on their personal lives and the treatment of their working animals, particularly donkeys. At the start of this edition, the publication discusses the role of costermongers—street vendors who sell goods from donkey-drawn carts—depicting their crucial contribution to urban life amidst a bustling metropolis. The narrative highlights their transformation over the years from a rough-and-tumble class into a more respected segment of society, as they gain better treatment for their donkeys and foster more stable family lives. Additionally, it touches on the various social organizations created to support them, illustrating the impact of urban missionaries and social reforms on their lives. The opening sets a tone of social commentary, uncovering the interplay between economic necessity and human compassion within the framework of London’s working class.
