Source c
At the present time,25%, of the population of glasgow live in one-room housees. Those small houses cause Glasgow's high death rate, Especially in childhood. One of ebery five born in a house of one room never sees the end of their first year. Of those who die do young, a third have never been seen in their sickness by a doctor. The bad air in the houses leads to death from lung diseases at all ages. As a result of poor condotions, the streets are filled with bandy-legged childre.
Question
How useful is source c for investigating conditions in the growing towns and cities of Scotland in the period of 1880 - 1939?
