They arrived in the city on Tuesdays and did the delivery of the clean, starched and ironed clothing, after a long exposure to the sun, on foot, with a bundle of clothes on their head or by cart, They brought back home the dirty clothes of which they took care for the following week. Back then, there wasnt any washing machine and the washerwomen from Caneas were welcome in the city, They brought joy and activity. They filled the streets with songs and with them came the smell of well-washed clothes. A Little bit of History - The Washerwomen from Caneas Text translated by students of the class 9eB
