They might fail, but be laughed at by the whole of New York as well as John Dyche and the ILGWU men, and all The same they knew this was the challenge they’d been hoping for — their chance to show the world they were more little than highbrow butters-in, just as a shirtwaist makers were more than irresponsible little girls.
