Document 7: Andrew Ure, The Philosophy of Manufacturers (1835) I have visited many factories, both in Manchester and in the surrounding districts, and I never saw a single instance of corporal chastisement [beating] inflicted on a child. They seemed to be always cheerful and alert, taking pleasure in the light play of their muscles..As to exhaustion, they showed no trace of it on emerging from the mill in the evening; for hey began to skip about.It is moreover my firm conviction [opinion] that children would thrive better when employed in our modern factories, than if left at home in apartments too often ill-aired, damp, and cold. Questions: How does Ure describe the working conditions for children? How can you detect his bias?
