What were some rules for Boardinhouse living for Mill Girls?

Mill girls in boarding houses during the 19th century often followed strict rules designed to maintain order and discipline. Common regulations included designated curfews, restrictions on visitors, and expectations for cleanliness and punctuality in their work. Additionally, many boarding houses enforced a no-drinking policy and required girls to attend church services regularly. These rules aimed to promote a respectable and industrious environment for young women working in the textile mills.
