Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Labour and Life of the People, Vol. 2: London Continued IN passing from the special study of East London to a review of the whole Metropolis the method of inquiry into the condition of the people has been slightly changed. In dealing with East London (and afterwards with Central London and Battersea) the unit taken was the family. In extending over the larger area the street has been substituted as a working basis. Instead of noting the number of children going to school from each household with the employment and social position of its head, we have contented ourselves with stating the number of children street by street, dividing them as to class according to what is known of the parents, but giving only general particu lars of the occupations. The result is, that the division of the population according to the conditions under which they live has been maintained, but that according to employment has been dropped. It is no improvement to omit from the statistics particulars as to employment, but in order to cover the whole ground in a reasonable time it was necessary to lighten the work. Moreover, I hope to be able to deal with the industrial Side of the question later in another and more complete way.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Labour of the People in London, Vol. 3: Blocks of Buildings, Schools, and Immigration The present chapter, written in 1890, is a sequel to the chapter on Influx of Population, written in 1888, which appears as Chapter II. Of this volume. In that chapter an attempt is made to determine the rate of influx from the provinces to East London, and its relation to the poverty and overcrowding of that district. The problem, however, of the circulation between London and the country cannot be satisfactorily handled with regard to one particular part of London alone; and, more over, the data for such an inquiry should not be obtained exclusively in London, but also in the rural districts which are the main sources of the influx.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Labour of the People in London, Vol. 9 In the poorer parts of London most of the houses have a frontage of from 12 to 15 ft. only, and of this about 3 ft. is devoted to entrance passage and stairs. The front room on the first floor has usually two windows and occupies the whole breadth of the house. This may be repeated on the floor above. The other rooms are all somewhat smaller. The largest size commonly found is about 14 by 12 ft. and the smallest perhaps 8 ft. by 8 ft. The height from floor to ceiling varies from 8 to 10 ft. It is with rooms of this character, containing on an average about 1000 cubic ft. of space, but varying among themselves to the extent indicated above, that we have usually to deal when the number of rooms occupied by a family is taken as a measure of poverty. Two or more persons making their home in one such room, or four or more in two such rooms, or six or more in three, are accounted crowded and therefore presumably poor; the assumption being that if they were not poor they would allow themselves more space. It is evident that this theory has many limitations, and affords but a rough test of poverty. Not only does the actual size of the room or rooms come into question, but much depends on the meaning of "person."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Labour of the People in London, Vol. 7 Taken together these trades provide employment for increased numbers, but not fully in proportion to the increase of population. Tailors and drapers show consider able increases, but hatters have undoubtedly decreased. The occupations Of dress-makers and seamstresses are liable to be confused, and the decrease in the one may perhaps be set off against the large increase in the other. Machinists may belong to any section - they are for the most part those who handle sewing machines. There are about employers, with an average of 12 work-people to each, and there are no less than 9000 men and women, tailors, milliners, dress-makers, &c., returned as neither employer nor employed. It is no doubt difficult at times in work of this kind to say whether a person is employed or working on his or her own account.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Labour of the People in London, Vol. 3: Religious Influences; The City of London and the West End There is here an evident and not unsuccessful effort to fill a place as a City church. Twice a week, on week-days, there is a service at with special addresses from noted preachers, each of whom usually gives a course. The object is to secure the attendance of men in their lunch hour, and so bring their daily lives under the influence of religion. NO doubt the attendance varies greatly with the reputation of the preacher, but as a rule it is disappointingly small. On one Wednesday we counted twenty persons - ten women, nine men and a boy - on another there were only five women and four men present. 80 large a proportion of women in a City audience is remarkable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Labour of the People in London, Vol. 7: Third Series: Religious Influences, Summary The organization of the Church of England is bound up with the parish System. The ground of London is cut up into ecclesiastical parishes varying greatly in size, their boundaries differing more or less from those of every other administrative area. These boundaries are recorded at Somerset House, and when the general Census is taken, the dwellers in each parish are enumerated by a special tabulation. The boundaries are also marked on maps in possession of the Archdeacons. Some of the incumbents, when issuing a report of their parish work, insert a Sketch map or a list of the streets and parts of streets included. Moreover, in most parishes some form of parochial visitation is carried out, and not infrequently every house is visited, spreading the knowledge and bring ing with it a sense of the presence of the clergy which justifies them in saying, 'the people know us; they know we stand ready to help.'
