The streets are
constantly filled with sewage, manure, waste, and filth. People walk through
the streets daily somehow managing to stand the unbearable excrement coming
from a variety of sources. So who makes it possible to continue to frequent the
streets London without there being overflowing sewage and waste? Why, that
would the London Nightmen. While many of London’s occupants and workers are
asleep snug in their beds or confined to their living quarters, a group of
brave souls come out when the clock strikes twelve in attempt to dispose of the
ungodly substances consuming the streets. These men come out at this time and
go through the streets trying to dispose of as much of the toxic waste as
possible. Divided into different jobs, the ropeman lowers down a tub into a pit
that’s smell is so horrendous, it would make any lady faint on the spot. The
holeman then fills the tub with the waste and finally two tubmen carry the load
to a cart, and that cart begins a journey to a place such as a city dust yard,
a place just for the waste of London. This work is so dangerous, so deadly, that
it has claimed the lives of many workers. Between disease and the fumes from
decomposing the waste, death could occur at any time once exposed. So, my
fellow readers, as you go about your daily activities throughout the streets of
London, remember those who work through the hours of the early morning trying
to make the streets cleaner and safer so that you might be spared from the
horrors that come from the foul, filthy muck that lies at your feet and lingers
in the air!
