1873165641873. Women Employment Labor LawMr. Mundella's Bill for Limiting the Hours of Labour in Factories. Observations of the Employers upon the Speech of Mr. Mundella M.P. made in the House of Commons U.K on Wednesday the 11th of June 1873. Manchester: John Heywood Excelsior Printing Works 1873. 32 pages. First edition. 8 1/4 x 5 in. Original paper wrappers. Includes three data tables in appendix regarding worker mortality rates. Liberal Party politician A.J. Mundella famous for his defense of safety bills and public education for all children speaks on unsafe working conditions and "shameful treatment" of laborers; he cites high mortality rates for women and child workers and includes mortality rate information on newborn infants who suffered neglect when their mothers were forced to return to work days after giving birth: "the return of the mother to the mill was a sentence of death on the child." In this document factory owners counter the speech given by Mundella cite statistics that claim quality of life is improving for these factory workers; while marginal gains had been made in recent decades factory labor was still very dangerous and politicians like Mundella ensured the health and safety for thousands of the least represented workers in England. Very good condition. unknown

18090760ADD59Printed by W. Stratford. for J. Stratford London: . 1809 Two volumes in one. pp. 564; 658. This was probably issued with two engraved title pages and 16 portrait plates - which are not now present. Thick 12mo. Early and unusual moire cloth binding. Spine repaired. Hardbound. Very good. Mary Anne Thompson Clarke 1776-1852 became the mistress of Prince Frederick Augustus 1763-1827 Duke of York in 1803 while he was Commander-in-Chief of British forces. He set her up in a fashionable residence but failed to supply the funds necessary to support their lavish lifestyle. In 1809 a national scandal arose when Clarke testified before the House of Commons that she had sold army commissions with the Duke of York's knowledge. Frederick was forced to resign from his position. A select committee was appointed by the British House of Commons to enquire into the matter. The parliament eventually acquitted the Duke of having received bribes by 278 votes to 196. He nevertheless resigned because of the high tally against him. In 1811 after it was revealed that Clarke had received payment from the Duke's disgraced chief accuser Gwyllym Lloyd Wardle 1762-1833 the Prince Regent reappointed the now exonerated Duke of York as commander-in-chief.
