"LITTLE CRIPPLES DAY. The Lord Mayor superintends the dispatch of hampers from the Guildhall, addressed to cripples who are unable to attend the childrens' banquet".
Medium long shot (snowy/scratched image) of the Guildhall entrance, busy with top-hatted men and on-lookers. A horse drawn 'London Parcels Delivery Company' carriage arrives. Foreground, a top-hatted man hands the driver a large envelope and looks at the camera. Medium shot of the same action, repeated twice from a different
angle, with the arrival of more carriages and again from the first camera
position. Medium shot of five formally dressed men, some in top-hats, some with regalia, standing behind a food hamper which has been placed on top of a small table. A poorly framed and over-exposed close up of the parcel. Written upon it can just be discerned: 'Crippled Children's Hamper - Sir W Treloars Fund'.
Also, barely readable, is 'Sliced Ox Tongue' on one of the packets.
Note: The Lord Mayor of London for 1916 was the Rt Hon. Sir William Henry
Dunn, Kt.
