Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 102, February 20, 1892

The Golgotha of Slumland! That's a phrase as I am told
Is made use of by a party,—wich that party must be bold,—
In the name of Mister LAZARUS, a good Saint Pancrage gent,
He's a Member of the Westry 'Ealth Committee, so it seems,
And the story wot he tells will sound, to some , like 'orrid dreams.
But, lor bless yer! we knows better, and if sech 'cute coves as 'im
Want to ferret hout the facks , they might apply to GINGER JIM.
There's the mischief in these matters; them as knows won't always tell.
Wy, if you want to spot a screw, or track up a bad smell,
You've got to be a foxer, for whilst slums makes topping rent,
There will always be lots 'anging round to put yer off the scent !
