Home and fruit stand of the Cavicchio family. 64 Bedford Street. Somerville, Massachusetts. Both the mother and Mary, 10 years old, worked off and on all day out here with the soot from the passing engines dropping so fast it had to be shaken off. A new tunnel is being dug in front of the house. Mother and Mary tend the fruit stand while crocheting and the work is thrown over the railing and fence near by. Their garments are filthy and grimy. See also Home Work report. Location: Somerville, Massachusettsachusetts.
