Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Elliott Family, or the Trials of New-York Seamstresses I feel it due to myself briefly to state the reasons which have prompted me to engage in a task of this nature, one more befitting and properly belonging to the female writers, whose feelings would naturally assimilate to, and cause them to sympathize with the sufferings of the female operatives of this city. I suggested the idea to one or two fitted for the duty than myself, but no action was taken by them. I then determined to assume the responsible task myself; and commenced at once the prosecution of inquiries, to the end that I might present nothing but facts. I approached the task with diffidence, for I felt that I was out of my proper sphere: but the motives which have prompted me, must prove my apology for that. The perusal of a small volume, entitled "The Wrongs of Women," by Charlotte Elizabeth, in which the wrongs and sufferings of the laboring class of her countrywomen are vividly depicted, left so deep and abiding an impression upon my mind, that my own attention and interest were fully awakened to the consideration of the subject.
