Lowell

January 21, 1841

Dear Father,

I was so glad to receive a letter from Mother last week! I am well, but sadly some of my friends here aren’t so lucky. There have been so many frightening accidents and lives lost. Only a few days ago, a young man suffered great injuries from working on a broken machine. The workers had let the management know that the machine was faulty. But they paid no attention to the workers’ complaints. Yesterday, I received my wages. I get a dollar a week now in addition to board. I will send the money home so that you can rest for a bit from working on the farm. I hope to hear from you soon.

Love,

Jane

What is the traditional interpretation of why the French Revolution started

agasfer [191]

Massive class inequality. Nobles and Clergymen were, in the French citizen's eyes, wasting money to fuel their lavish life style. They believed the 1% were living off the other 99% and they were right. France had a huge economic downfall after supporting the American Revolution so the citizens thought it unfair that the problem the government caused should be forced on them alone.
