What a story! This was my favorite passage:<br />Piperlea: She told me she was still working at the mill when she got married. She said that the day her grandmother died, she was working at the machines, and she looked up, and her grandmother waved to her from outside. She said, ‘I’ll be right there, Gramma.’ She looked down, finished what she was doing, looked up again, and her grandmother wasn’t there. She told her supervisor about it, and he said that he hadn’t noticed her grandmother there. She went home, and her grandmother was getting her last rites. She thought that, somehow, her grandmother was saying goodbye to her. That gave me goose bumps.Gail, northern Californiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05606476543639979603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823162730236792476.post-28527293727290791622017-09-03T18:24:54.144-04:002017-09-03T18:24:54.144-04:00Gail -- I added the new link and a little more inf...Gail -- I added the new link and a little more information to the blog post.

I think you will enjoy his website: <br />https://morningsonmaplestreet.com/lewis-hine-project-index-of-stories/lewis-hine-project/<br /><br />He and his camera did much to make the world a better place.<br />xo, Rosemary<br /><br />Content in a Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075511188721176895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7823162730236792476.post-88432613822194623302017-09-03T17:38:58.221-04:002017-09-03T17:38:58.221-04:00Blessings to Lewis Hine.

Actually seeing that poor horse wrenched my heart just as much as those young boys. I wonder what their life expectancy was. Amazing how little we/I know about child labor...something I understand is still going strong in China.Gail, northern Californiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05606476543639979603noreply@blogger.com
