Scotland Neck Cotton Mill. Group showing some of the youngest workers taken in the mill at starting time. Tiniest girl, one apparently 8 or 9, I saw at work at her knitting machine perched up on a box, as she was too short to reach. The next in size I saw raveling. Both were steady workers. Location: Scotland Neck, North Carolina.
