Waiting for the train, 1844. Railway passengers: 'Right before us is a widow lady - she must be the grandmother - guarding a fine chubby little baby, seated on a hamper, and crowing at the train; kicking, too, as far as the marvellous swaddling of shawls in which he is enveloped will admit of. He cannot be going to Brighton for health - his cheeks are bursting with it...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V.
