Excerpt from Creatures That Once Were Men In the interior of the dosshouse was a long, wide and grimy board, measuring some 28 by 70 feet. The room was lighted on one side by four small square windows, and on the other by a wide door. The unpainted brick walls were black with smoke, and the ceiling, which was built of timber, was almost black. In the middle stood a large stove, the furnace of which served as its foundation, and around this stove and along the walls were also long, wide boards, which served as beds for the lodgers. The walls smelt of smoke, the earthen ¿oor of dampness, and the long wide board of rotting rags. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
