not consider what you said about our

ment; but we want you 10 understand
that we can afford to wear rropptRgs
as much so as those who are not fac
tory-girls. We consider the source
whence IL came. for no gentleman would
pass such remarks on workiDg-girlS.

business. Take this and do as you
may with il. We stand our ground.
With due respect to you. We remain,

In reply to the card signed - Factory
Girls, :" desire TO state that intended

ing in factory in my evidence before
the Coroner. and am sorry that | made
any remark that could be construed
into an offence. am not in the habit
of alluding Extensively to gentlemen !
would certainly not, therefore. be so
ungallant as to insult ladies'. Any
honest work is honorable, and ! have
always praised these young ladies for
their self-sacrificing devotion to duty, as
| am well aware that in some cases they
are the sole dependents of their families.
Those working in the factories who
know me best can testify that ! have
not only always been respectful, but
never neglected an opportunity when
could be of service TO them. | regret
deeply the notoricty this case has given
me. but still more the fact that any one
should think that could wantonly in
jure them. Respectfully,
L. +. STRATTON.
