Excerpt from Temple Bar, Then and NowInquiring at the office of my hotel in Piccadilly, I learned that the Royal procession would pass the door in something over an hour and that the windows of a certain drawing room were at my disposal. It would have been more comfortable to View the Royal party from a drawing room of the Carlton, but what I wanted to see would take place at Temple Bar, so my breakfast dispatched, I sallied forth to take up my position in the crowded street.It was in February, a dark, gloomy, typical London morning. The bunting and decorations, everywhere apparent, had suffered sadly from the previous night's rain and were ¿apping dismally in the cold, raw air, and the streets, though crowded, wore a look of hope less dejection.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
