All your travel won't help you to get a job; but if you could go into a newspaper office and say, 'I know more about Upper Clapton, or Stockwell, or some such beastly place than any man living, or 'I'm a crime expert, and I can give the names, and dates of execution, of every man hanged in London for the last twenty years, then they'd welcome you as a long-lost brother, and give you about ten pounds a week."
