X-WR-CALDESC:21 February 1846: Sarah G. Bagley became the first female tele
 grapher. (Lowell\, MA). She was also an activist for labor nearly a centur
 y before unions were legal and started working in a textile mill in 1835. 
 She also wrote and contributed articles to the 'Lowell Offering.'\n\nSarah
  George Bagley represents many women and men in the mid 19th century\, who
  were committed to improving health care\, working conditions\, and educat
 ion for women and men and children.  She believed that it was through the 
 political process of passing laws that society would improve the working c
 onditions and the quality of life for woman and all oppressed or enslaved 
 people.\n\nIn 1846\, a new business of sending messages along wires called
  the magnetic telegraph had just opened an office in Lowell\, and they hir
 ed Sarah as the first female telegrapher in the United States. Not only di
 d she tap out messages\, but since she was a writer (and published author)
  she helped people write their messages and letters. Early in 1847\, Sarah
  was contracted to run the magnetic telegraph office in Springfield\, Mass
 achusetts where she was very unhappy to discover that she earned only two-
 thirds as much as the man she replaced.  She wrote to a friend of her grow
 ing commitment to human equality and the rights of women.
