A haunting image with an equally haunting narrative. Sad as it was then, these deplorable conditions can still be found in many countries today.

Interesting, here in Sydney Australia, "to doss" is still in common usage, as in "can I doss here for the moment". Wonderful insight into this slice of history.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Disability History, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

Hi Penny, We just added the photo to your group. If you don't mind, there's an easier way for us to receive invitations to share photos with groups. Navigate to the photo you want us to contribute. Below the comment box on each photo page, there is a link that reads "Invite this photo to...". Clicking that opens a drop-down for groups you administer that will auto-fill the comment box. We then receive a neat little button to contribute. Thanks for your interest and comments! The Smithsonian
