"Eliza Marshall called in and examined.
Where did you get work first?—At Mr. Marshall's in Water Lane.
Was that a flax mill?—Yes.
How happened you to leave that mill?—It was so dusty: it stuffed me so much that I could scarcely speak.
Did it affect your health?—Yes, I should not have lived long if I had not left.
Where did you next go to?—To Mr. Warburton's in Meadow Lane.
What business is Mr. Warburton?—A worsted spinner.
What were your hours of work?—When first I went to the mill we worked from six in the morning till seven in the evening.
What time had you allowed for dinner?—When first I went we had an hour, but we did not keep that long; we removed to Lady Lane, and then we had but half an hour.
What time had you for breakfast and drinking at Mr. Marshall's?—A quarter of an hour for breakfast, I believe, and a quarter of an hour at tea, I think; but it is so long since that I cannot recollect particularly.
