An article titled "Ground in the Mill" in Household Words, edited by Charles Dickens, highlighted the harsh working environments that went on in factories, specfically with child labor. This article quotes "The Cry of the Children" in support of its criticism of these working conditions.  It was published after "The Cry of the Children" and about seven years before EBB passed away.
