Option B, "The mill relied on steam as a power source" is not true of the textile mill founded by Francis Cabot Lowell.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The American businessman Francis Cabot Lowell is named for in Lowell, Massachusetts. In only six years, He established an American textile industry. He was successful in bringing the industrialisation into the United States.

Born in 1775 in Newburyport, Massachusetts, he had become a successful trader. He was impressed by British textile mills when he was 36 years old on his trip to England.

Another invention of Lowell was the work of young farm women in the mill. He compensated them less than men, but he offered opportunities that were willing to attract most women, some as young as 15.

Mill girls stayed in tidy business boarding houses with chaperones, paid in cash for them and took advantage of religiosity and schooling. Waltham boomed as Lowell's new enterprise was flown by workers.
