Child Labor, Industrial Accident, 1912

Entitled: "Accident to young cotton mill worker, Giles Edmund Newsom. While working in Sanders Spinning Mill, a piece of the machine fell on to his foot mashing his toe. This caused him to fall on to a spinning machine and his hand went into unprotected gearing, crushing and tearing out two fingers. He told the Attorney he was 11 years old when it happened. His parents are now trying to make him 13 years old. The school census taken at the time of the accident makes him12 years and school records say the same. His brother is not yet 11 years old. Both of the boys worked in the mill several months before the accident. His father, tried to compromise with the Company when he found the boy would receive money and not the parents. The mother tried to blame the boys for getting jobs on their own hook, but she let them work several months. The aunt said "Now he's jes got to where he could be of some help to his ma an' then this happens and he can't never work no more like he oughter." Location: Bessemer City, North Carolina." Photographed by Lewis Hine, October 23, 1912.
