4. Leeds Woollen Workers Petition, 1786
We plead for the further continuance of these
machines: Men of common sense must know, that so
many machines in use, take the work from the hands
employed in Scribbling, - and who did that business
before machines were invented.
How are those men, thus thrown out of employ to
provide for their families; - and what are they to put their
children apprentice to, that the rising generation may
have something to keep them at work, in order that they
may not be like vagabonds strolling about in idleness?
Some say, Begin and learn some other business. -
Suppose we do; who will maintain our families, whilst we
undertake the arduous task; and when we have learned
it, another machine may arise, which may take away that
business also… Signed, in behalf of THOUSANDS
