"Fog-bound pedestrians collide or fall over objects, on an open road on the outskirts of London. A man falls over a milestone inscribed 1 Mi . . An old woman hurls herself against a post. A man driving a fashionable gig lashes his horse, which a man with a link tries to drag forward. A link-boy walks before a fashionably dressed man. Two birds have collided and are falling; two dogs rush towards each other. A dim sun is the centre of a faint halo.
