Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Child Toilers of Boston Streets It is a bitter cold day, and a north corner, down in Quincy Market, is certainly not a favorable place for tempering our bleak Boston east winds to the "shorn lamb;" but Anna is a brave little girl, and drawing the old water-proof over her head she manages by vigorous clappings and stampings to keep head, hands, and feet in a tolerable state of comfort. Then she is so interested in the arrangement and sale of her pretty Christmas greens that she doesn´t stop to think much about herself or the weather. All around her little stand, by the great stone pillars, are many "rivals in ™" for since the week began, hundreds of teams have come in from the country with all manner of "green things." Close beside her, stand some fragrant spruces and firs that came from away "down east," for although many of the suburban towns, especially Randolph, Needham, Stoughton, West Wareham, Walpole, Lincoln, North Abington and Natick, furnish our city with much of the so-called "small" trimmings, it is chiefly from the grand old forests of Maine, that our finest Christmas trees, and the "large" trimmings for church and hall are obtained.
