Report: "The Jungle: A Story of Chicago" - Upton Sinclair - Appeal to Reason
"It was quite a story. Little Juozapas, who was near crazy with hunger these days, had gone out on the street to beg for himself. Juozapas had only one leg, having been run over by a wagon when a little child, but he had got himself a broomstick, which he put under his arm for a crutch. He had fallen in with some other children and found the way to Tom Cassidy's dump, which lay three or four blocks away."
Description:Chapter Twenty-one in Upton Sinclair's original serial for Appeal to Reason, the unexpurgated version of what became "The Jungle."
