Three Eras in the Infe of an In ebriate
A long depiction of a bar room, its gloom and filth, follows Hapgood and companions through a night of drinking. A loitering, decayed group of suckers, loafers, and reform talkers crowd the space while debates about temperance and the cost of alcohol unfold amid fights, quarrels, and a public watch-house aftermath.
