Voz do Operário
"I should have written that it was not delayed." The words were uttered in the late nineteenth century by the tobacco worker Custódio Gomes, after a newspaper refused to publish a report about the living conditions of these workers. The newspaper A Voz do Operário was born shortly after, in 1879. Today the building that stands in the street with the same name houses a school and the ghost of Custódio — it is said that he liked the project so much that he refused to leave it.
