A part of the Hopkins family. All of these (and "except the least one") in the mill. Belton Mfg. Co. The two girls together run 10 sides $1.10 a day. The little girl apparently not 12 years old couldn't write her name. The next to the smallest boy doesn't appear to be 12 years makes 50 cents a day sweeping. 3 others not in the photo, work. The mother showed me the family record of the older half of the family. "The other list got destroyed." (Queer.)  Location: Belton, South Carolina.
