Biography
Maria Botelho was one of the New Bedford textile strikers individually named as arrested at the Sharp Mill in the July 26, 1928 Daily Worker. Its last-night wording indicates July 24 in the dated dispatch, while the Monday offense described in the warrants is not the personal arrest day. The account establishes actual seizure during strike activity but no final verdict, physical release or measured detention.
