Y. Sunday M ercury. “A celebrated divine holds the devil responsible for “The Woman’s Bible.” -—Deu"'7'1er Post “It is likely that Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s new Bible will show clearly that Adam picked the apple himself and that he sometimes saw snakes.” —New Hampshire Mountaineer. The co—authors of this great work had one by one withdrawn as the undertaking was considered too radical to be con- nected with, by either their husbands, ministers or friends. Only Elizabeth Cady Stanton continued her Work, revis- ing chapter after chapter of the Bible, attempting to give women a place of equality in the church as well as in the state. Mrs. Stanton spent many years of her life pointing out the extent to which women were held in subjection by por- tions of the Bible, which in some cases were literally forged. For example, nothing in the original Hebrew Bible says that woman was made from a rib of man. Mrs. Stanton once answered a Bishop who quoted that chapter of Genesis by replying, “I decline to accept Hebrew mythology as a guide to twentieth century science.” Although she was born at Johnstown, New York, in 1815, ciple stage of her life. Her dauntless courage, sensational ad- mortalized especially in that section of Columbia County Where.her grandfather was one of the two original settlers, and where the Cady homestead in New Concord,township of Canaan, is today one of the show places of the county. A number of the villagers boast of fine scrap books which record her ex- periences as a Women’s Rights pioneer. ‘As a little girl she came to Canaan to visit her grandparents, and as the years passed she con- tinued to keep the friendly ties- of her youth. For twenty-five successive years Mrs. Stanton was on hand for the legislative sessions at Albany. Throughout her life she traveled up and down By HELEN WALTERMIRE the Hudson River‘Valley holding meet- ings, attending conventions, and arousing public opinion for her cause. Sometimes hecklers broke up such meetings. Police protection was often necesary to safe- guard the daring pioneers for Women’s Rights. Life was not simple for Mrs. Stanton and her followers, but successfully they kept the valley alive to the need for suffrage for women and the necessity for new laws to permit equal educational privileges, equal property rights, T and equal marriage and divorce privileges. Included in her crusades was the struggle for the abolition of slavery. - Eighty-two years old, Elizabeth Cady Stanton died in New York City, the outstanding woman of her generation in the opinion of Charles Beards. (“Amer- ica in Midpassage”). While Elizabeth was still a girl in the johnstown Academy, her brother, who had just graduated from Union College, died. Her father looked at her one day and remarked, “Elizabeth, if you were only a boy.” She told her father she wished to go to Union College. Judge Cady explained to her that there was not a college in the country which a woman might enter. This disappoint- ment, as well as her early marriage to Henry Brewster Stanton, an anti-slavery author, orator and journalist, did much to guide her in her decision to devote Elizabeth Cady Stanton andWomen9s Rights her life to the emancipation of women. While on her wedding trip in England she met Lucretia Mott, who signed with her, the first call to a convention to advance the cause of women. Elizabeth Cady Stanton first intro- duced a resolution proposing that women have the right to vote at the famous women’s rights convention in 1848. This caused such a storm of ridicule that her father, Judge Cady, came for his daughter thinking her mind was unbalanced. ‘ Mr. Stanton was an active abolitionist and with Mrs. Stanton worked persist- ently for the election of Mr. Lincoln. Opinion was sharply divided on the questions of slavery and seccession. Wendell Phillips wrote her in 1864, “You answered correctly. I would cut off both my hands before doing anything to aid Abraham Lincoln’s election Justice is more to me than Union.” Later Phillips refused to shake hands with Mrs. Stanton because she had ridi- culed his stand in their publication the “Revolution.” Of this she wrote, “Poor fellow! After "serving up every living man himself he cannot stand my satire in the ‘Revolution.’ Well, seeing that he feels it so, ‘I will give him some more.” ‘The Stantons moved to New York at tl11S.tlm€. ‘One day a mob of Secces- sionists surrounded their home. As one of their sons came in he was attacked by the men and carried down the street. He was able to save his own life only by inviting the whole crowd into a neighborhood saloon and suggesting that they drink to South Carolina. When the Civil War was over, the American women, led by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, again demanded sufferage, only to be silenced by the very men whom they had been aiding in their fight against slavery. The men gave as their excuse that, “This is the N egroe’s hour.” Horace Greeley was a lifelong opponent of women’s sufferage. As editor of the T ribuue he was able to influence the public pro- foundly at this time. In 1867, Mrs. Stanton had a petition in favor of Woman’s sufferage head- ed by Mrs. Horace Greeley pre- sented to the legislature. Mr. Greeley was so outraged that he notified Mrs. Stanton that she would only be mentioned in the Tribune when it was necessary Page 15 thereafter, and then referred to as “Mrs. Henry B. Stanton.” Men were constantly on the alert to find flaws in Mrs. Stanton’s speeches and writing. Rev. Collyer once wrote a letter accusing her of using one of his anecdotes. Her answer was short but pointed: “Dear Mr. Collyer, I have your com- munication about ‘literary righteous- ness’ criticizing me for using one of your anecdotes without giving you credit. But you forget that you belong to a class—-—white male citizens—who have robbed me of all my civil and political rights; so I feel it ill becomes you to call me to account for using one of your little anecdotes. I consider you and your fair sex fair game for literary pil- ferring. Moreover, it is man’s depart- ment in life to dig and delve for jewels, actual and ideal and to lay them at woman’s feet for her to use as she may see fit; and finally, you should rejoice that you have ever said anything that is worth quoting. Sincerely your guiltless purlioner,” E. Cady Stanton. That year when election time came the Republican wagon called for the males of the household. Elizabeth Cady Stan- ton climbed into the wagon and rode to the polls. Here she filled out a ballot and tried to talk the old Dutch inspec- tors into accepting it. The town was agape at her action. The following day the postman called and offered her five dollars for her ballot to be framed and hung in his house as a curiosity. Mrs. Stanton afterward admitted that she had thoroughly enjoyed the whole epi- sode. For many years Elizabeth Cady Stan- ton wroteand spoke in favor of women’s rights. After discussing the question of ‘marriage and divorce she would be showered with questions such as, “But what will become of home life when men change their wives every Christmas?” After addressing the Constitutional Convention, a small committee of .men asked her to discuss the points of her speech with them. All were serious and respectful except one, a small man with a crooked legs who tried to be witty at her expense. During a pause he asked in a mocking voice, “Don’t you think that the best thing a woman can do is to perform well her part in the role of wife and mother? My wife has pre- sented me with eight beautiful children; is this not a better lifework than that of exercising sufferage?” Mrs. Stanton viewed him slowly from head to foot. “I have met few men in my life worth repeating eight times,” she said. The members roared with laughter. They clapped him on the shoulder shouting, “There, sonny boy, you have read and Page 16 I1 spelled; you better go.” The scene was heralded throughout the state by the press. For three years the leaders of the suffrage movement adopted the “bloomer dress.” Wherever they traveled the town turned out to View them. Mr. Stanton courageously escorted Mrs. Stanton to the various balls and legislative gather- ings. On the streets the boys would follow them shrieking: “Heigh! Ho! the carrion crow, Mrs. Stanton’s all the go; Twenty tailors take the stitches Mrs. Stanton wears the breechesl ” Elizabeth Cady Stanton was the mother of seven children. These chil- dren she cared for wisely and well. Her home was one of the most delightful in the community. One day Susan B. Anthony wrote her again begging her to write and. speak for the cause. She replied, “Don’t press me too heavily or I shall take time off to have another babyf’ On her eightieth birthday six thousand THE LOAD ON HIS SHOULDER -r ’ CAN TAKE A LOAD OFF YOUR MIND! 23 N. Seventh Street 532 Warren Street CHRESTMAS A$KET$ AT Here is one present that the whole family can enjoy-—a basket of fresh fruits on your Christmas table! quality fruits and vegetables at Barker’s. women gathered in the Hippodrome in New York to hold a convention in her honor. An onyx and silver ballot box was sent by the enfranchised women of Utah. A silver loving cup arrived from the New York City Sufferage League. Tributes, telegrams, letters and gifts poured in from admirers and organiza- tions all over the world. The story is told of King Tyre’s slave who first saw the sunrise. He looked to the west while the crowd looked to the east. The king gave as his reason for directing his slaves’ gaze to the west- ward, that one must always turn his back to the multitude if he would go forward. Elizabeth Cady Stanton reso- lutely did this all her life. No speech or article was ever written for popular approval but because it voiced her deep- est and most sincere convictions. She did not live to see the women of America given the right to vote but she had seen great progress made and to the end looked forward with much hope into the future. Always Ready FOR A PARTY ?

But no man deserves the title of Patriot simply because he cradles in his heart a sense of reverence for the symbols of national grandeur. The simplest definition of patriotism may satisfy totalitarian governments, but democracy demands of each citizen participation in government- To comply with this demand the Patriot must know the structure of his government, the principles and philosophy which must necessarily support that structure, T and understand his goVernment’s needs and the limitations inherent in its authority so that he may actpwisely as a participant in democracy. It is not the function of this magazine to review the forms ofour national or State governemnts, or to report the circumstances which demand federal action. Such essential information must be acquired from other sources. The scope of this magazine permits editorial interest only in. local government where democracy functions in more obvious forms.

We are traveling as individuals, in no say compromising the A. E. R. leaving you free in N. Y to inaugurate what work you see best While we raise the money to help you do it. Miss Anthony & I shall work in the future as in the past as individuals, right in one line totthe accomplishment of our object a if the Devil steps forward ready to help I shall say good fellow come on!

She said of her father that while hewas sober and taciturn in manner, his keen .«;c:-=nse of justice moved him to modify the smnewhat military rule which her mother msistetl should prevail in the household. Elizabeth Cady Stanton owed much in her (;»;3i‘ly girlhood to the friendship and guidance ,3_+ Reverend Simon Hosack, who was Pastor ctr the Scotch Presbyterian Church which her -£<gmily' attended in Johnstown. This was a .5?-:atch settlement, in which there prevailed fire old feudal ideas regarding women and ;m;perty'. Elizabeth Cady, as a girl, spent 771$/LC.i1 time in her father's ofiice, and there, in wugh the complaints of unhappy dependent ~.v':::2ieii, became well acquainted with the in— \'Jb~Sll(.‘€ of the common law. Consequently she v'€5:»lv'ed to do what she could to free her sex «rmrii the disabilities under which they were Then living. In her childish indignation, 'i’V‘llI1l{lI‘lg that her father and his books were -the beginning and the end of the law, she marked obnoxious statutes with a pencil, and }3r:w[)OS€d to cut them out and thus end them. ti;-itteii she was ten years old, her only brother, who had just been graduated at Union College, cited and left her father inconsolable; for, like his neighbors, he believed so firmly in ~tlme Blackstonian theory of the headship of ‘(fire man, that the loss of his only son was a *’?'€;f-*’E‘ll)l€ blow to his hopes. Elizabeth, desiring fr t1<)IlS()l€‘ her father, resolved to do all that i«~;wl»rothc-r had done. Immediately she began uzml/er Doctor Hosack the study of Greek, (;\JillCl] she continued at the Academy with such success that she secured one of the two prizes offered for proficiency in that language. With her prize she went at once to her father, expecting that he would praise her as he would have praised his son, but she records pathetic- ally that he merely remarked, “Oh, my child, if you were only a boy." This incident was a bitter disappointment to the ambitious girl, and, mortified by the inequality in the condi- tion and the treatment of boys and girls, she i , v 5 l J ! ,4 ed ncl int ‘re, int in- she sex 'ere IOH, /ere she and em. her, ege. fon y hi p of as;1 irhtg that egan reel; with 5 WVO uage. Ither, vouhi aetky child, was a 5 girl, :ondi- s, she BIOGRAPHICAL CYCLOPAEDIA or AMERICAN WOMEN 65 determined to make herself the equal of men in courage and ability. She became proficient in Mathematics, Latin and Greek. On being graduated from the Academy, she was amazed to find that the hope of study at Union College, which she had secretly cherished with the idea of filling her brother's place, could not be carried out. Her chagrin was intensi- fied by her being sent to Mrs. VVillard ’s Girls’ Seminary at Troy, New York, where, as she records, she spent “two of the dreariest years” of her life. The next seven years she passed at home, reading widely, and under her father's direction devoting special attention to law. In this way she fitted herself to be- come the able opponent of oppressive legis- lation regarding women. In the spring of 184() she married Henry Brewster Stanton, alrezidy well known as a leader and a lecturer in the anti-slavery move- ment. Since Mr. St.Inton a delegate to the World's Anti—Slavery Convention to be held in .London in June of that same year, they went to London on their wedding trip. Mr. Stanton became Secretary of the Conven- tion. Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s indignation was stirred anew by the imputation of inferiority cast upon women by the refusal of the majority of the Convention to admit Mrs. Lucretia Mott and other American women who had been regularly appointed delegates. In Mrs. Mott she met for the first time a liberal-minded thinker of her own sex. The friendship thus begun continued through forty years, and assisted in determining Mrs. Stanton to devote her life and energies to the social, political and moral betterment of women. For six years following her return home she lived in Boston. During this period she made a thorough study of the position of women. As a result, in addition to the woman 's rights claimed by Mrs. Mott--remunerative work, property rights after marriage, ad- vanced education, and independent judgment in religion-—Mrs. Stanton demanded the removal of woman ’s civil disabilities by mak- ing her political status the same as that of man. In 1846 she located at Seneca Falls, New York. With Mrs. Mott and others, she issued the call for the first Woman's Rights Convention. It was held at Seneca Falls,- July 19 and 20, 1848, and marked the in- auguration of the Woman Suffrage movement. Although the object of the Convention was defined to be the discussion of the social, civil, and religious rights of women, no allusion being made to women’s political rights, yet in the declaration of sentiments which was prepared as a basis for discussion Mrs. Stanton introduced as the Ninth Resolution a state- ment that it was “the duty of the women of this country to secure to themselves their sacred right to the elective franchise.” Neither her husband——~who had prepared for the Con- vention an abstract of the laws that were unjust regarding the property interests of women-——nor Mrs. Mott approved of Mrs. Stanton’s demand for the ballot. They argued that it would only bring “ridicule on the cause.” Mrs. Stanton persisted, however, and spoke vigorously and eloquently at the first session in defense of the proposal. The resolution was adopted, though not unani- mously, by the Convention. This new departure in the movement had few adherents outside the convention. In fact, of those members who signed the Declaration of Senti- ments, many later requested to have their names withdrawn. Judge Cady, alarmed at his daughter’s radicalism, hastened to her home, where he urged her earnestly, but in vain, not only to forego her convictions but to abandon public life. From 1848 to the time of the Civil War, Mrs. Stanton devoted herself to the anti- slavery, temperance, education and woman suffrage causes. She was founder and Presi- dent of the New York Woman '3 Temperance Society, in its early years, and Chairman of the Woman Suffrage Committee of her state. As early as 1854, she spoke before the New York Legislature in advocacy of a higher status for women. In 1863 she founded the Women's Loyal League, and was elected its ..,......_.—-..~.—_.-mouq-. .<....--.., ~v-p_--—ac-y.—.....—...,.-.,¢.w...—. * 66 BIOGRAPHICAL CYCLOPAEDIA OF AMERICAN WOMEN President. The classic address from this society to President Lincoln, signed by Mrs. Stanton, came from her trenchant pen. It is printed in full in the History of Woman Sufirage. In 1866, believing women to be eligible to public office, she offered herself as a candidate for Congress from the Eighth New York District. In her announcement, she said: “Belonging to a disfranchised class, I have no political antecedents to recommend me to your support, but my creed is free speech, free press, free men and free trade——-the cardinal points of democracy.” She received twenty- four votes. With Susan B. Anthony and Parker Pillsbury she established, and was Editor-in-Chief, of the Woman's Rights jour- nal called The Revolution. During the two years of its existence, it was the most vigorous and the most quoted of any suffrage journal ever printed before or since. A The Civil War made the people of the United States think nationally, and leaders of the Woman Suffrage movement naturally adopted still broader lines of thought. The National \Noman Suffrage Association was founded in 1869. Mrs. Stanton was its Presi- dent almost continuously until 1893. At the suggestion of Mrs. Stanton and her co- workers, the Honorable George Julian intro- duced in Congress, on March 15, 1869, a joint resolution proposing a Sixteenth amend- ment to the Constitution. It read as follows: “The right of suffrage in the United States shall be based on citizenship, and shall be regulated by Congress; and all citizens of the United States, whether native or naturalized, shall enjoy this right equally, without any distinction or discrimination whatever founded on sex." From 1870 Mrs. Stanton lectured for twelve years throughout the country, eight months each year. She was one of the most popular speakers who ever appeared under the auspices of any lyceum bureau. To her credit is attributed the liberalizing of divorce laws, the opening of higher institutions of learning to women, and the marked growth in Woman Suffrage senti- ment. Throughout this period, Mrs. Stanton was the Samuel Adams of the woman move- ment, for her pen produced all the “State Papers" issued. She it was who drew up the calls to conventions, the addresses to Legis- latures, the appeals to learned bodies, and she it was, also, who made in person, for nearly fifty years, the chief arguments before con- gressional and legislative committees. In 1878, the annual convention of the National Woman Suffrage Association was held in Washington, District of Columbia. It had been arranged that Mrs. Isabella Beecher Hooker and Mrs. Lily Devereaux Blake were to conduct the convention, as Mrs. Stanton and Miss Anthony felt they must continue their speaking tours in the West. Mrs. Stanton had urged upon her co-workers the introduction in Congress of a new resolution calling for a suffrage amendment to the Na- tional Constitution. Between 1869 and 1878 the efforts of the suffragists had largely con- sisted of appeals to courts for interpretations in favor of the enfranchisement of women under the Constitution as it stood. After a meeting in St. Louis, about this time, Mrs. Stanton received a telegram saying that it was imperative that she come to the National Capital and carry out her proposals. She immediately went to Washington and, before both the National Woman Suffrage Conven- tion and the Judiciary Committees of Con- gress, made a plea for a suffrage amendment to the United States Constitution. She persuaded her old friend, Senator Sargent, of California, to introduce the Amendment. This was the first time a suffrage amendment had been introduced, the same in form as the Nineteenth Amendment, adopted in 1920. During the years of reconstruction, she and other suffrage leaders had systematically made every effort to amend the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments when they were under consideration by Congress. Their endeavors to influence this legislation in the interest of women, however, met with no 2 \ :3}, .. 3 >1 ,1 i. .« 2 i as It l 61' ere ton iue Irs. the ion Pia- 878 :on- ions . en .fter Wrs.

She never laid claim to having “drawn” these amendments. In 1878, as in the later efforts of the suffragists for a national amendment, the Fifteenth Amendment, securing suffrage for colored men, was copied except that the phrase “race, color, or previous condition of servitude” merely gave place to the word “sex.” Although Mrs. Stanton never af- firmed that the wording of the suffrage amendment was other than a copy of the Fifteenth Amendment, it may be claimed for Mrs. Stanton that to her is due the credit of first demanding the passage of a VVoman Suffrage amendment to the United States Constitution, and of carrying out the prac- tical details of its introduction in Congress. In 1888 Mrs. Stanton suggested the forma- tion of the Interna.tional Council of \Vomen. Her suggestion was acted upon, and she pre- sided over the first convention. From 1880 to 1886 she devoted her time to the colossal labor of bringing out the first three volumes of the History of VI/oman Suflrage. Her co-editors were Miss Anthony and Mrs. Gage. This work was followed by The Woman's Bible, which caused more newspaper comment than any other work fromher pen. In 1897, her reminiscences were published under the title I Eighty Years and Illore. During the closing years of her life she was adding to and re- writing these memoirs. This work, together with her Letters and Diary, edited by her son, Theodore Stanton, and her daughter, Harriot Stanton Blatch, was published in 1921 by Harper and Brothers. Mrs. Stanton con- tributed many articles to the Forum, the Arena, the Westminster Review, and the North American Review. She was also a constant writer for reform papers and for the daily press. The day she died there appeared in the New York American an article which she had written twenty-four hours earlier, and on her writing desk ready for her signature lay open letters to President and Mrs. Roosevelt urging that a recom- mendation for the consideration of VVoman Suffrage be put in the President's then forth- coming message to Congress. It may be said of her that when she died, on October 26, 1902, she was in the full vigor of her powers. Her ready wit and broad nature, her sympathy with the oppressed, her scorn of wrong, her catholicity of spirit, her love of justice and liberty, her intellectual ability, moral courage, and physical energy, together with her unusual opportunities in youth for wide and sound culture, gave Mrs. Stanton a unique place in the history of American women. It may be recalled, in evidence of the universal esteem in which she was held, that all the great na- tional organizations of women united in doing her honor at a meeting in the New York Metropolitan Opera House on the occasion of her eightieth birthday, and that the centenary of her birth was celebrated in New York City, in 1915, at the largest banquet ever held to do honor to the memory of a citizen of the United States. t 3 I 5

We . are now writing letters in all directions for speakers, letters, & contributions. We want a good letter from you & some money to help defray the expenses of the of the convention, which with Eall,§9t$11posters & advertisememnts are always very heavy in Washington. But we always have packed houses, & very enthusiastic meetings there.. Whenever you give $10,000 to institutions for boys. ”I hope you will set aside an equal sum for the education, elevation, & enfranchisement of woman. Civilization halts today for the development of the feminine element in human nature. With our wonderful material & intellectual con- quests the moral does not keep pace, because there is no re- cognition of woman:- who in her higher developement would re- present the moral, spiritual, aesthetic. Our religion & gov- ernment is essentially masculine hence violence, force, war, in every walk of life. & the only remedy for the many & varied evihs of society is the education of feminine element. We have no real women, the vast majority are simply reflections of men. We are trained after their ideaséimodes, & manners to echo their opinions, & to accept unquestionfitheir conclusions. The most discouraging feature of this reform is the ignorance of women as to their own degradation.” But you see & appreciate all this & I do hope like ? & Sage _,M you will do somthing for the women of this republic & by ny“of preparation for a greater work, do send us $50 or 100 for the coming con. Affectionately your cousin Elizabeth Cady Stanton Send what you can get for the convention to Mrs. Ellen G. Sargent No 508 H. Street N.W. Washington D.fl. She is our treasurer a very honorable honest woman.x We would like Cousin G£k'to come to the-convention beginning thus. En closed find check for $100. xflife of the California Senator

Alas! poor Green, you nere will see that good old pipe again. If however I can find those “whistles”, perhaps I can get another pipe at the "Mamouth.Variety Store“. yes to the plaid, do you wish common blue plaid like your nether’s check? Margaret has gone to Johnstown.& I did not hear the plaid conversation.y Green's indiah rubbers are not here. I will call at hrs. Dudley's & inquire about Charlie's legs, Green's cravat & shoes.

Your party, in your last excursion reminds ne“ a of a party of "jolly fellows". They were sent by their parents to see the country in which they lite, with.directions to observe closely the scenery, soil, productions, manners & customs of the people &c,* &c, But these fellows were so much absorbed with the society of each other, that when they returned to their parents after a long absence, they had nothing to tell of their travels & they had lost the chief part of their clothing, leaving a trunk here & bag there, here a tooth» brush there a pair of boots &c, &c. Well there is nothing like thisr elegent negligence no surer mark of “blood.” You are so eonstituted, I so all joking aside, dear Lib, your things shall be sent & if you will order all that your party left in Philadelphia, New York & at the various stopping places, to be sent here I will have one baggage oar ehartered to Wemsville for your gentility.

Henry sill be at Spring~ 4 field a few days the middle of this month as he cannot come up at that time I am going to spend a few days with him. As soon as I return I shall go to Johnstown.and thence to Peterboro. I wish you would get George Sand's last work Consuelo. It is a most beautiful production I I should like to have sister Sarahfls opinion of it. I enclose a bright tbird for Sarah. Take care that it does not fly away.

We are having 10.000 copies of John Stuart Mills speech printed. as soon as they are finished I will send you some to sell. We must raise money for printing. Ask your father to send us a donation. We have spent over a thousand dollars in printing this spning. The report of hills’ speemh in our papers was very meagre. We sent to England & got a verbatim.report in one of their papers. .The work goes on finally. Beecher is to make a grand speech for us on the 4th of July in a grove in Westohester. Lucy Stone says we shall undoubted~ only carry Kansas. Then if they do not take the word “male” out of our Constitution we will shake the dust of the Empire State off our feet & all go to Kansas & leave these “white male fossils" all to themselves. Kind regards to the “white males" of the household & ask your Father to lobby a little for us if he knows any of the Suffrage Committee. Ymmstmfly E. Cady Stanton.

Y Johnstown March 17th (About 1841) Dear Lib I returned from Seneca last Monday & found your letter waiting I me. I am really distressed that Cousin Gerrit should be suffering so much amidst learned honoopathists without once applyting to them for relief. Strange that you who are so famous for new measures should be so obstinate on medical points. I do hope you & Cousin Nancy will use your influence to prevent Cousin Gerrit from.submitting to a scientific death by these allopathic quaoks. I have seen Wonders in Eomeopthay and Animal Magnetism at Seneca, enough to make me wonder that all our lggg§gg_ (though not wise) physicians do not at least examine into their principles. Near Seneca Falls there lives a man who has had the rheumatism for twenmy years & under the care of a “regular” physician all that time, for four months every year, he has laid upon his back unable to move either to the right or the left without suffering exquisite pain. so great has been his suffering that the joints of his fingers_& toes are all loosened from their sockets. This poor man heard of the angel homeopathy, & placed himself under the her guardian care. Now he is not only a convert to the doctrines of the great Hanneman, but a man in comfortable circumstances & has the prospect of at least living the remainder of his days with- out enduring the torments of the rack for half the time. Dr. Herring either has or will publish a work soon, about women & children. Will you inquire of Mrs. Bayard the next time you see (her) whether it can be obtained in Ehila. or New York. If so & if you should return before May do bring me a copy. I intend to commence life on Homeopathic principles. * How many of our friends are dropping off one by one & yet how unconcerned we live in the daily and hourly violation of all the laws of our nature both mental & physical. Have you heard of the death of ‘Augusta Trotter? She died last Saturday. We have not heard from any of the family, but saw her death announced in the papers. I would like to have some particulars dear Lizzie of Gertrude's death, if you can find time write me something of her last illness. I hope you endear Cousin Nancy will take great care of yourselves. Until I was at Tryphena's I saw Cousin Bill once & called to see her again after Cousin Betty returned. 1 QLetterincomp1ete7 (Te EH60-*6-"*"“’ S"“"n;” V " Part of a letter written to Elizabeth Smith in 1841 from.Johnstown, New York.

France shouting "Viva la Republique“ nee follows our lead. Struggling in deep waters let ue send out the life boat & take her on board. France humiliated in the eyes of the world, beleaguered in her own Capitol, her armies scattered like the leaves of the forest, before the eintry wind, bewildeeed in her loogldhaee for freedom, is more powerful in ‘the liberal ideas, on science ghilosophy, religion, a social life, that she has now broadcast, among all nations. than Prussia with her army of Conquerors

I received your letter & contents & wrote my son what you said & urged him to send you more articles on French affairs. with kind regards for yourself & wife, Sincerely ever Elizabeth Cady Stanton Mrs. Underwoods article on Patton was good. His falsehood & contradictions are pitiful.
