To spread his social messages, the Apostolic Vicar relies, among other things, on pastoral letters. In the circular on Sunday work (1846), he addresses the arbitrary determination of working conditions by factory owners. In the 1840s, the weekly working hours for wage laborers are between 80 and 85 hours.
