Dominic Scarafone and Jessica King, both 19 years old and homeless, enjoy a meal together Wednesday at the Grace Center in St. John's Episcopal Church in Gloucester. Scarafone and King were sleeping next to the historic Fitz Henry Lane House, under an overhang that afforded a little shelter, when police discovered them at about 2:15 a.m. Tuesday. They were allowed to spend the rest of the night in the Gloucester District Court building. At 6 p.m. Wednesday evening, with a winter storm forcast for today, the young couple had no place to stay for the night.
