National Child Labor Committee Pamphlet No. 92 reports investigations of child labor in North and South Carolina cotton mills, carried out in 1908 by photographer Lewis W. Hine and investigators Rev. A. E. Seddon and A. H. Ulm. The text covers mill by mill findings on children's ages, night shifts, wages, illiteracy and mill schools, and summarizes the state child labor laws and their lack of enforcement. Twenty-six numbered plates, mostly Hine's photographs of child workers in spinning rooms and outside mills, are reproduced with captions.
