Answer:

Young farm women whose behavior was closely monitored

Explanation:

Francis Cabot Lowell built a factory that mass produces textiles called Boston Manufacturing Company. To find laborers Lowell relied on New England farm girls that were in the age of 16-24 years of age. They were young, unmarried and this made them dispensable if needed to.

Since the girls were very young, he assured the parents that the girls would live under the watchful eye of matrons that would preserve their decorum and moral uprightness.

They would have access to libraries, schooling, and dormitories. Men were forbidden to access the dorms.
