A beggar boy from the Scottish Borders is found writhing in agony in the road and dies soon afterward "in great misery.” Another "poor, hunger-starved beggar boy” is found in the street and carried into a house, where he dies.

A total of sixty-two people die in Greystoke in just one year—during which time the parish sees no marriages and only three children conceived. You hear the story of a man leaving his home and walking hundreds of miles in search of work or food and returning after a couple of months with sufficient money only to find that his wife and children have all since died.
