Some of the doffers in #theWashingtonCottonMills, #Fries, #Va. The smallest one said he was 15 years old but, for that matter, they are all "wise" to the necessity for being at least 14. All work. The group was posed by the overseer. Location: #Fries, #Virginia.

View of #theWashingtonCottonMills, #Fries, #Va. Housing conditions are fairly good, but housekeeping not very good. Working conditions in the mill are very good. Good light, fresh air. Location: #Fries, #Virginia.
