Book excerpt: Excerpt from In London's Heart IT Was eight o'clock in the evening, and a thin haze which had hung over London through the October afternoon had lifted, and the night was bright and exhilarating. The working day was over. The shop assistants, glad to escape from their monotonous toil, were pouring into the streets. Streams of pleasure seekers were walking toward the great centre of theatrical entertainment, and smart little broughams, 'with ladies and gentlemen in evening dress, were dash ing along as fast as the plague of omnibuses would allow them. Outside one of the most fashionable restaurants in Piccadilly, the big foreigner in uniform who has taken the place of the English commissionaire was preparing to receive company. He had been lolling in an easy attitude against the door-post, reading a pink extra special until the clock struck eight, but now he had begun to assume an important, not to say dictatorial, attitude toward the crawling hansoms and four-wheel ers which seemed to him to be blocking the way.
