Lowell Dec 21st 1845 Dear Father
I received your letter on Thursday the 14th with much pleasure. I am well which is one comfort. My life and health are
spared while others are cut off. Last Thursday one girt fell down and broke her neck which caused instant death. She
was going in or coming out of the mill and slipped down, it being very icy. The same day a man was killed by the
[railroad) cars. Another had nearly all of his ribs broken. Another was nearly killed by falling down and having a bale of
cotton fall on him. Last Tuesday we were paid in all had six dollars and sixty cents pard 468 for board. With the rest
I got me a pair of (rubber boots) and a pair of So. cts shoes. Next payment I am to have a dollar a week beside my
board

pepin the short[a] (german: pippin der kurze, french: pépin le bref, c. 714 – 24 september 768) was the king of the franks from 751 until his death. he was the first of the carolingians to become king.[b][2]

the younger son of the frankish prince charles martel and his wife rotrude, pepin's upbringing was distinguished by the ecclesiastical education he had received from the monks of st. denis. succeeding his father as the mayor of the palace in 741, pepin reigned over francia jointly with his elder brother carloman. pepin ruled in neustria, burgundy, and provence, while his brother carloman established himself in austrasia, alemannia and thuringia. the brothers were active in suppressing revolts led by the bavarians, aquitanians, saxons, and the alemanni in the early years of their reign. in 743, they ended the frankish interregnum by choosing childeric iii, who was to be the last merovingian monarch, as figurehead king of the franks.
