A lamplighter
A lamplighter, historically, was
an employee of a town who lit
street lights. Lights were lit each
evening, generally by means of a
wick on a long pole. At dawn,
they would return to put them
out using a small hook on the
same pole. Early street lights
were generally candles, oil, and
similar consumable liquid or
solid lighting sources with wicks.
Another lamplighter duty was to
carry a ladder and renew the
candles, oil, or gas mantles.
A lamplighter
A lamplighter had to
light up about 150
lanterns. He had to
walk several miles. The
lights were lit from the
1-st of September till
the 1-st of May. There
were about 6000 oil
lamps in Moscow in
1848.
