Story from the local newspapers in August 1893. A little snippet, short but descriptive and a reminder how we should be thankful for any comforts we have in these modern times, no matter how small.
It reads, “A young boy of 4 years, whilst playing in his rat infested house in Blantyre the other day, was badly injured by one of the rodents. His finger very much torn by the annoyed rat. He had to receive doctor’s attention.”
AI nicely images the scene.
