FARRINGDON STREET AND THE FLEET PRISON.
GROUND PLAN OF FLEET PRISON.
SECTION OF THE PRISON.
Before quitting the subject of the Fleet prison I cannot help referring to "the grate." Like Ludgate, it had a room open to the street, but furnished with a strong iron grating, behind which sat a prisoner, who called the attention of the passers-by monotonously chanting, "Pray Remember the poor Prisoners." A box was presented for the reception of contributions, but very little money was thus obtained.
