1871165651871. Women Employment Labor To the Right Honorable Richard Assheton Cross M.P. Secretary of Sate for the Home Department. 1871. 4 pages. 8 x 5 in. In this document women workers express fears regarding proposed labor regulations that would limit their ability to earn and would "restrict the paid labour of all women.or even make all married women half-timers." They claim it is unjust treatment that would harm women workers and pit their marriages at odds with their ability to work: "Your Memorialists assert that it is unjust to place restriction son the labour of unmarried women for the presumed protection of married women or mothers and further that any special restrictions upon the labour of married women is practically a penalty imposed on marriage as regards to the woman." Document that reveals the competing priorities for women factory workers between workplace safety and their earning power. Chipping with small losses along top and right edge. Repairs to two tears on page 2. Top left corner missing. Good only. unknown
1900178581900. Women at Work Albumen photo of women at work in a small factory. Photograph measures 7.75" x 5.5" inches and is on gray photographer's board measuring 8.5" x 6.5" inches. Circa 1900s. Albumen print. Women sitting at long wooden tables in small manufacturing shop. Palm-sized rings hang in loops from the ceiling and can be seen scattered throughout the photo. One woman in a long white dress holds length of material looking it over while another sitting behind her and across and wooden aisle looks away from the camera toward her desktop. Two other women can be seen seated behind her further back into the shop. A man in shirt and vest appears to be observing the women at work while another man at the back of the shop appears to be using some sort of pressing device.

186429021415Anthony Coventry RI 1864-1894. General wear and toning. The smaller of the two notebooks has semi detached covers. . A set of two notebooks containing nearly thirty years of the meeting minutes of the annual July 4 gathering of the Coventry Factory Fire Engine Company. These minutes includes a list of members and officers voted in each year as well all the outcome of any topic put to vote. The meetings take place in Anthony RI which is a small village within Coventry RI. The smaller copybook is completely full and contains minutes from their annual meetings dating from 1864 to 1881. The second and larger notebook begins where the first notebook left off in 1882 and continues until 1890 when at the annual meeting there was no quorum present and as such "the charter of the company was declared forfeited sic and the company disbanded." In August of 1893 the company was reorganized under the old charter. Four more meetings follow in 1893 with the last meeting recorded stating that the fire company met to compete at the Kent Co. Fair and won the third prize of ten dollars. Included with this set are several receipts and notes of the fire company. There are eight 8 receipts dating between 1893-1894 two of them are undated. One scrap piece of paper which served as a draft for a portion of one of the annual meeting minutes. A roll call list of members from the 1893 annual meeting. A list of dues paid by each individual member. And lastly a note dated September 15 1893 which certifies that the fire company won the third prize in the Hand Engine Contest Open at the Kent Co. Fair. Below is an excerpt from one of the entries: "The squirt gun was tested and proved very satisfactory. It was voted that Lt Capt Byron Matteson be a committed to inspect the Hay Cart and any other machine he may see fit and report as soon as posable. There being more business the meeting adjourned to the call of the Captain." - August 3 1893 Meeting These journals most likely belonged to Arthur J. Matteson 1859-1925 who was the Secretary of the Company from 1888-1893. Matteson lived in Coventry RI and worked as a machinist.
