1882-10-10, Washington (DC) Evening Critic; brief and cryptic announcement of a strike at Tredegar – “400 men are idle”
From the Washington (DC) Evening Critic, 10/10/1882, p. 4, c. 1
The Tredegar Iron Works, at Richmond, Va., are at a standstill, and 400 men are idle on account of the discharge of a man for reasons which his fellow-workmen deemed insufficient.
