A Brief Visit

The Bell

When young women came to Lowell, their lives were no longer run by the rhythm of the sun and the seasons, but by the clock and bell of the mills. Rising with the bell as early as 4:30, and going to sleep by the bell at 10:00, women led lives that were highly regulated by the corporation.
