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

It came to her and Lucretia Mott as they walked together down Great Queen Street, London, on the afternoon of June 12, 1840, just after the first World's Anti~Slevery Convention had refused to seat eight American women delevetes on account of their sex. Mrs. Mott was one of the rejected delegates. Mrs. Stanton was attending the convention as a guest. Their husbands were delegates... The convention had opened that morning in the Freemasons’ Hall. Mrs. Mott ene hrs, Stanton, sitting in the railed—off space assigned to women, had listened to e long debate on the question of admitting women as members of the convention. They had heard, the last thing before adjournment, the overwhehming chorus of “noes” that barred women out. They left the hell together, "burning with indignation,“ and resolved on their way back to their lodgings that when they went home they would cell a convention to take up just one thing, - the rights of women." From Lucretia and Elizabeth, by jﬁetherine Fisher

Published on the 100th Anniversary of the day that 4 ex.-Quart eat, gfaafoa submitted the first resolution in the world demanding the Elective Franchise for Women Seneca Falls, N. Y., July 19, 1848 Elizabeth Cady Stanton was born in Johnstown, New York, on No- vember l2th, 1815. Her family was wealthy, judged by contempo- rary standards, and she could have lead a life of ease and luxury, but the seed of divine discontent was A within her. The sad lot of most women penetrated her soul at an early age, and she chose, instead, a life of continual work, hardship and battle. She had to contend with op- position within the family, also. Her determination to speak in public, and her stand for the enfranchisement of her sex caused her father to disin- herit her. Yet she was never hitter , and her dignity, humour, unbounded health and energy carried her through the ocean of ridicule, frus- trations, prejudice and intolerance to the ripe age of 86 years. She was ageless, , and could en- _ thrall my English and French cous- ins and me with stories of her youth as easily as she could move a vast audience with her oratory and logic. Her lectures and writings covered the whole ﬁeld of human progress———— “Motherhood”, “Sex”, “Our Boys”, “Our Girls”, °‘Woman Suffrage”, “Dress Reform ”, “Woman, the Church and the Bible”. She was a diligent Greek scholar and a great student of the Bible. She inveighed against the degraded position accord- ed to women by the orthodox churches of her generation. She was a Unitarian, and a firm believer in the brotherhood of man and the right to political and economic equal- ity of all human beings regardless of color or sex or race. Seneca Falls was her home for 16 years from 1847. The little town seethed with activity from the day she set her foot there, and on July 19 and 20,1848, the long-discussed plans of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott to hold a Woman’s Rights Convention were realized. One hundred well-known men and women attended and signed the “Declaration of Sentiments”, but it was Mrs. Stanton who moved the reso- lution that women should be granted the elective franchise, a motion sec- onded by Frederick Douglass. A storm of protest arose, but the motion was carried by a small margin. Over the cries of ridicule and denunciation heaped on the Convention and its sponsors by pulpit and press arose the clarion voice of Wendell Phillips. ————“This is the inauguration of the most momentous reform yet launched upon the world, the first organized protest against the injus- tice that has brooded for ages over the character and destiny of half the human race”————, and Frederick Doug- lass in “Lone Star” and Horace Gree- ley in New York Tribune published the only editorials in praise of the Convention and its objectives. Often reformers of one generation _ become the conservatives of the next. , Thiswas not true of Mrs. Stanton. She wrote a letter which was read at the celebration of the 50th anniver- sary of the 1848 Convention, which ended as follows: “. . . My message today to our coadju- tors is that we have a higher duty than the demand for suffrage. We must now, at the end of fifty years of faithful ser- vice, broaden our platform and consider the next step in progress, to which the signs of the times clearly point,———name- ly, co-operation, a new principle in in- dustrial economics. We see that the right of suffrage avails nothing for the masses in competition with the wealthy classes, and worse still, with each other. “Women all over the country are working earnestly in many fragmentary reforms, each believing that her own, if achieved, would usher in a new day of peace and plenty. With woman suf- frage, temperance, social parity, rigid Sunday laws and physical culture, could any, or all, be successful, we should see changes in the condition of the masses. We need all these reforms and many more to make existence endurable. What is life today to the prisoner in his cell, to the feeble hands that keep time with machinery in all our marts of trade, to those that have no abiding place, no title to one foot of land on this green earth? Such are the fruits of competi- tion. Our next experiment is to be made on the broad principle of co-operation. At the end of fifty years, whose achieve- ments we celebrate here today, let us reason together as to the wisdom of lay- ing some new plank in our platform. “The co-operative idea will remodel codes and constitutions, creeds and cat- echisms, social customs and convention- alism, the curriculum of schools and colleges. It will give a new sense of jus- tice, liberty and equality in all the re- lations of life. Those who have eyes to see recognize the fact that the period for all the fragmentary reforms is ended. “Agitation of the broader questions of philosophical Socialism is now in order. This next step in progress has been fore- shadowed by our own seers and prophets, and is now being agitated by all the thinkers and writers of all civilized coun- tries. “The few have no right to the luxuries of life, while the many are denied its necessities. This motto is the natural out- growth of the one so familiar on our platform and our official paper, ‘Equal Rights for All’. It is impossible to have ‘equal rights for all’ under our present competitive system. ‘All men are born free, with an equal right to life, liberty and happiness’. The natural outgrowth of this sentiment is the vital principles of the Christian religion. ‘Love thy neighbor as thyself’. In broad, liberal principles, the suffrage association should be the leader of thought for wom- en, and not narrow its platform, from ‘year to year, to one idea, rejecting all relative ideas as side issues. “Progress is the victory of a new thought over old superstitions!” If she were living today, she would no doubt be a champion of civil rights and just as many unpopular causes as in 1848. She would be de- manding the full emancipation of woman and equality of rights under law, inveighing against intolerance and bigotry, imperialism and monop- oly, and championing the rights of the common man throughout the world. Until 1900, she held, the pre-emi- nent position in the feminist move- ment, not only in her own country but throughout Europe too. During the last years of her life, she was uni- versally known as “The Grand Old Woman of America”. Some of the high lights of her long life were: In 1848, was the principal organ- izer of the ﬁrst Woman’s Rights Con- vention, and moved the woman suf- frage resolution. In 1854, the ﬁrst woman to ad- dress the New York legislature from the speaker’s rostrum. She was president of New York State -Woman Suffrage Society in 1854. She helped form the ﬁrst National organization for woman’s rights—— The National Woman’s Suﬁrage As- sociation, and was its president from its inception almost continuously for 20 years (1869-1890). When later the American Woman Suffrage Association merged with the National Woman’s Suffrage Associa- tion to become the National Ameri- can Woman Suffrage Association, she was elected president. She made the principal address at the great Cooper Union mass meet- ing in 1861, calling on Lincoln to free women as well as the Negro, and enfranchise both. She ran for Congress in New York State in 1866. In 1869, when the family ﬁnances were at a low ebb and the education of the ﬁve younger children in jeop- ardy, she registered with the Lyceum hureau, and toured the country from Maine to Texas on the famous Or- pheum Circuit, earning from $100.00 to $200.00 per lecture. She did not stop this arduous work until Bob, her youngest, was graduated from Cornell University in 1881. She and Packer Pillsbury edited the periodical, “The Revolution,” from 1868 to 1871. She made the principal address when the W7oman Suffrage Amend- ment was ﬁrst introduced in Congress in 1878. She wrote her coworker, Su- san B. Anthony, who was lecturing in the West, an account of it. This amendment was identical with that ﬁnally passed in 1919 as the 19th Amendment (sometimes erroneously named the Susan B. Anthony Amend- ment). s The three ﬁrst volumes of the “His- tory of Woman Suffrage” early edi- tions, bear the legend, “Edited by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Matilda, .1 oslyn, Gage.” She initiated the International A Woman Suffrage Committee in 1882, in England. On her 80th birthday in 1895, there was a huge celebration at the Metropolitan Opera House of New York City, with memorials and pres- ents from every state, anddmany from abroad. In the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, there stands a large goblet presented to her by the Wom- an Suffrage League on which is en- graved, “Defeated Day by Day, but unto Victory Born”. The reforms she advocated and for which she was ridiculed have largely come to pass: Higher education for women; won1an’s political enfranchisement; dress reform; short skirts; the aban- donment of corsets; the abandonment of swaddling clothes and tight ban- dages for babies; the abandonment of seclusion for women during preg- nancy; getting up soon after child- birth, and continuing one’s duties; liberal divorce laws; a single stand- ard of morals; equal guardianship; property rights, etc. But some of her demands of 1848 still remain unaccomplished, as for instance, complete emancipation of women so that they may have equal- ity of rights under the law, and the full protection of the Constitution. And with all this public activity, she bore and reared seven children, ﬁve boys and two girls. There is a letter from an admirer of hers, my grandfather, writing from Washington, January 16, 1857, to my aunt Margaret Livingston Stanton, then ﬁve years old. He said: “Tell your mother that I have seen a throng of handsome ladies, but that I had rather see her than the whole of them :————hut I intend to cut her acquaintance unless she writes me a letter.” My memories of my Queenmother, as all of us grandchildren called her, are of a delightful person to live with and play with. Backgammon, chess and checkers were our almost night- ly amusement. I have memories of men and women, colored and white, of high and low estate, seeking her counsel and advice. The mornings she spent writing endless letters and articles. During those years, 1897 to 1902, she wrote her autobiography, “Eighty Years and More”, and also “The Woman’s Bible” (her delight- ful commentaries on the women characters of the Bible and her inter- pretations) . Indefatigable to the end, the day before she died, she wrote a letter to Theodore Roosevelt urging him to include sponsoring woman sulirage in his inaugural address. A great writer, author, feminist, philosopher, orator and reformer, friend of Phillips, Douglass, Carri- son, Greeley, Whittier, the Brights and McLarens and feminists through- out the world, passed on into history the 26th day of October, 1902. The author lived with her during the last years of her life, at 26 West 61 st Street and 250 West 94th Street, New York City. Additional copies can be obtained by writing Box 436, Greenwich, Conn.

In July, 1848, history records the first movement among women for the discussion of their political, religious and social wrongs. Since then the demand for the right of suffrage has extended over many countries and has been granted, in one form or another, in the United States, in England and her colonies, in Australia, New Zealand, the Isle of Man and New South Wales. I Tax-paying women have voted by proxy in several nations of the Old World for many years. In the long history of woman's srongs there never has been so favorable a time to demand her complete emancipation in the United States as now, for we have for the first time in this Republic a President who has declared himself in favor of woman‘s political equality. When President Roosevelt was Governor of New York he recommended the enfranchisement of the women of the State in his message to the New York Legislature, and expressed the same opinion on several public occasions. Now is the opportune time for leading women to ask the President to make the same demand in his coming Message to Congress for this act of justice to thirty~six million American citizens new defrauded of their most sacred right, one that underlies all others, a voice in the laws. For, as the Fathers said long ago: “No just government can be formed without the consent of the governedg“ & In a speech made by the President at Fitchbnrg on Labor Day, he said that he was “in favor of an amendment to the Constitution of the the United States, conferring ndditionel power upon the feﬁerel government to deal with corporations." To control end restrain giant monopolies for the best interests of all the people is of vast import, but of far vaster importance is the establishment and protection of the rights end liberties of one half the people of the United States ~« the most moral half, too ~ namely, women. Surely there is no greater monopoly than that of ell men in denying to all women a voice in the laws they ere oomoelled to obeye Qotober 203 1902. Elisabeth Gndy Stanton. Note: This is a copy of the appeal written & prepared for mailing to the press by Mrs. Stanton e few days before her death. October 26, 1902.

And now that I desire to write and judging from your last letter to Cate that a line now and then from a friend would give you pleasure, now that you are enjoying the quiet of Peterboro ~ I think that the right time has arrived, and I commence, after this lengthy exposition, my epistle by saying that Gate and I are at home enjoying lthe solitude of Johnstown, and that a messenger of yours visited these parts about a fortnight since and by its quaintness ruffled our placid faces with something like a smile. It told us many things of you, not in themselves amnsing,but made so by the style of description. It said among other things that “you were more happy than when asleep than awake."- How can that be so? How can you judge of your happiness when asleep or eompare it with what you feel when consciousness returns. I have thought & thought for a reason why you should enjoy a greater amount of happiness in sleep than awake, and no good one can I find. However the natural inference to be drawn frmm such a declaration is that the fair one must be in a situation common to renantic girls of seventeen. Girls of that age often sleep and often still they dream of some friend - some lover ~ perchanee a Greek loveru a Cavasilus*~ this nakes sleep sweet - far better is it not dear Lissy that to sigh for his return by day? I learned from that messenger that your phylosphy had not yet enabled you to conbat that hydraheaded monstercalled Blues shosever I prophysy that his overthrow is at hand. *Have your weapoEE"iE+order and I too will make mine ready and when I visit Peterboro (whioh.wil1 be soon) by our united efforts, we will compel to depart from the breast of an unsophisticated country girl and seek companionship (in some more gloomy abode) with the heartless deceiyers, the gay coquette, the roue,the blazze, &c. iHin.who had so long tormented you. I look forward to a visit at your #1 father's house with a deal of pleasure. If Ioan getthere I will stay a months I reeeived the paper you sentne and I agree with the writer of that article or exercise. I ave something to say to Mag and I must say adieu although I have in truth.much.more to say to you. Cate will ansser‘your letter soon. William is here now. Write to me dear Lizzy as soon as you desire ~ love to all e ‘Is is Your cousin? L1b. address — Miss Elizabeth Smith l Care of Gerrit Smith Esq. Peterbero I N.Y.

I felt reliesea L to hear that you had received the guitar & liked it so well. I will give you all the instruction Ihave received when I visit Peterboro. AI play ﬁﬁylittle that is not well. I have only taken lessons sixzweeks 9 at the old mansion - the gre ihas the same elastic gait as when in days of yore he so gallantly served % and in New York I did not find.much time to practice. However I know about a half dozen pretty songs and four Waltzes. If papa attends eourt at Utica the first week in July I shall go there with.him, and frgm_there I to PeterhJro.if 211 an opportunity offers. Alt is doubtful if Papéh goes as inportant business he thinks will compel him.to be at Plattsburgh aboatf the same time - so I shall be obliged in that case to make some other plan, but loam determined to make the long_thought of visit this summer. When o do the Cochranes Visit you? Perhaps I will come with then, that is ifﬂl they will stop for me. When you write to them.te1l them to do s@ ~ if I do not get there before then. When you write to Sid tell him that his Johnstonn friends & all will ggghappy to have him spend his August vaeatin § I well tell hin.1ooks as gay & proud &I the country with Sid upon his back - and the little Waggon t@o,is still in good condition.‘ We are all well & happy, and rejoicing to hear from senses that our poor sister Meg is better. we have all suffered_anch anxiety on her account. She seemed for a time to be so rapidly declining. If Mrs. Tallmadgeis still eithyoa.reaember meLkindly to her, say that‘ “she must stop at Johnstown on her return.~~~ Gooi night; I hope to seeA l you soon, Tillthen adieu -~- Lizzy.

Beheldl my apology for not having written as soon as I desired to de. Last Monday norning Mr. & Mrs. Eaton and Gate left us for Newport. txnxny Today we received a letter saying that they like it very much.c They were making bathing dresses ~ and I presume ere this they have had a taste of old ocean. I have the supervision of the nurse and children. We all thought it better for Harriet to have the children here for their sake as well as her own.As her health is very delicate it is inportant that she should have as little care & trouble as possible. Tryphena is with us now. She came down about a week since. Baddy will return home with her and I think Bo will find sufficient pleasure with his Grandmana, Papa & nurse without the addition oft his Auntie Lee. Igan therefore determined toﬁhrow up my appointment over the nursery &¥depart for Peterboro the first of August. Miss Stewart wrote to me last week saying that she would accompany me at that time, with great pleasure but that company would prevent her from leaving sooner. She seens very desirous to visit Peterboro, but not more so than I am. You need not fear dear Lib that I shall be lonely. You do not know me if you think that I am happy only in gay company. A ride on horseback - a long walk with you er a race with Mag would give me more pleasure than a promenade tn Broadway or a party of all the fashionables of that great city.i This week Tryphena and I will probably go to Schenectady to commencement &* £ry will accompany me west as far as Canistota. I will let you know what day we will be there, and then you can see Tryphena if you wish and Mag can send home letters to Mag. I an very sorry to hearythat your Father's health is so delicate. We all regret it thatthe did not stop and see us when he went dewn. Give my love to your Father & Mother and Mag. I hear that Sid too is to spend August with you. We will have a happy time ~ but what will your Mother say to so many wild ones. There come Haddy and Bo and now for a regular romp with then.i as I shall see you as soon dear Lib I must say adieu for the present. I am sleepy and oppressed with the heat so prithee excuse this short dull 1etter.. I You shall hear soon again from A A Your cousin Lib PS~ All sendlove to our Peterboro friends. addressed to Miss Elizabeth Smith reterboro naa1son Co. N.Y.

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.

My shoes were blackened up by a white man.& my piazzas & woodhouse whitewashed by a black one. Saturday night found us in exquisite order but no Julius to admire. I "have no fear of man," so do not hesitate to bring Charles the I have no cook, one frail girl of fourteen is my only dependence. I can give Charles boiled eggs bread & butter & coffee &c, &c. He shall not go hungry. Do not let this keep you home a single day. You spoke of getting me a cook in Syracuse is there any hope in that direction? I want a good faithful girl “an old girl". A knitting factory has just been opened here that has swallowed up all the girls. Mr. Johnson has to take care of baby all the time & when he sleeps Work as fast as she can go. Henry is still in Buffalo. The last letters from Johnstown give as bad news of my Father. He is gradually declining & suffers a good deal. I wish Cousin Gerrit & Nancy could go done again. He has always loved your Father very much» My baby grows finely. Write often. What do you think of boarding where Aunt Belle new is? If she gives up her rooms the let of September suppose I take them.for the winter. Do you think I could stand the board 2! You know I an a great epicure. I am desperate sick of working & attending to the fleshly needs. Love to all Your Johnson I Addressyto Mrs. Miller (Elizabeth Smith Miller)

Especially mignonette. I have never succeeded in raising that flower yet. Henry is busy gardening & I am nearly through house- cleaning. We have been home just two weeks, - found everything safe y& sound. It seems a long time since I parted with you & Cousin Nancy at N. Y. How is dear Cousin N.? How utterly vain all the a must seem to her as they do to any sick body.i Wilkeson is getting better at the water cure & now Gate is going. She has sent Maggie to Johnstown. who nurse & two younger children are to come tozme next week. Bayard is to go with his mother, so she will shut up her house & be free from all care for a time. "Dear Cate she has had a hard winter of it. The old house at Johnstown is being pulled down. We looked for you there every day for a week. Why did you not come? My children have all been through the mumps dispensation.i How do yours manage the whooping cough? When you write which I hope will M be soon tell me all about your household & how the house at - ‘f gets on. That trunk Dear Liz was elegantly packed & the satin ress came without a wrinkle. I must give you Mama's last for Cousin Nancy to laugh at. She was reading David Copperfield & when she finished the last nunber, I said, Well Mans how do you like it “oh! said she, “I did like it,depend upon it that Stenotyge is going Eogrun away with Emily", almost equal t3““61a Dobbin & Susan~ Knifer . I Give a great deal of love from Henry & me to each & all. The spirits seem to be making some new manifestations. I am,convincedy that it is all humbug. How strange is not that these very minds that reject Christ & his miracles & all the mysteries of the Bible because they are opposed to reason & the truth as we see it in other revelations of God's laws, should be deluded by this miserable piece of humbug. I believe this is all done by some human means. There's nothing more wonderful about this than the preformances of the necronancer. My Seneca women wish to know when they get their land. Ask Charley if we sent our list. I wrote mine out last fall if he has not got it I will make another I 4 Margaret Pryor, Wate2mlo0 Seline Birdsell, Waterloo Harriet Roberts, Seneca Falls rhe names of the other two I have forgotten but I will find out a send them again. will you mention these to Charley, or Cousin Gerrit whoever attends to this securing of bank billsyamongst the ranks of humandty or if the bid must be made out in a business manner I will add mine to Henry's. When you write to aunt Bell give ny love to her. When you come hither we will go up & see her. You must not postpone until grape season this year, it will be too late for you.* Good night your Cousin Lib Aadr.ss.a to Elizabeth Smith Miller Peterboro, Madison Co.,N.Y.

The article signed J.V.N. is your beloved Mr. Johnson, but do not mention it or Jackson _& Miss Gilbert would tear my eyes out. “Our daughter” you see is getting topheayy. She tells three lies this month. She says she was next to you to wear the dress. I wore it several weeks before she did. She says she does not wear a bodice I have never seen her without one, & a very long one too. She says I write over my own signature as much- as to say that I donot write any of the editorials. In this very number are six editorials written by me. The whole column share your name is mentioned is mine, then “The Detroit Tribune", about the Lowell girls & the man in pettiooats.y Which one of us is responsible for this lack of moral senmiment in child? =A.man was sent here from J Boston to get a daguereotype of Mrs. B. for the “Beaten museum“ 3 paper published in that city. It is quite a large paper & the whole first page is devoted to a biographical sketch & full length out of Mrs. B. I think Julius you ought to be thankful that your name has not been blazoned about as a leader of fashion, a kind of female Beau Brummel. I am sure I am glad that I have kept out of this part of the preformance. I would as soon have my name on the bottle I family all over the country, as Lunds Sasaparilla or Stains panacea. No Julius you can immortalize yourself on something better than petticoats.l Julius you must write. You write,excellent letters. Do write one for the next Lily, about servants; children, the costume, labor, or anything. Suppose you write a series of letters to mothers. Reread Combo with care, & teach mothers just how to take care of their babies. This would be a great amusement to you & of real use to many an ignorant mother. You need not let anyone but Massa Johnson know _ ‘until you appear in print & are approved.J Now do this Julius. Amelia & I get on delightfully. We have been feasting on strawberries. My baby is very good & grows finely. I continue to be his nurse & it iiseasier to look after him than to train an ignorant Irish girl. I g thave invented such a variety of ways to keep him quiet, that is ways for him to keep himself quiet. I'll tell you how site now in his carriage, comfortable behind him, pillow before him. A tiny tape is tied to the top, a bell is tied to the top also; hanging down about ltwo fingersfrom the top. He has the long tape in his hands which he plays with just as a kitten does with a string, every little whilehey. knocks the bell, then he looks steadily at it until it is perfectly I still. hhen he is tired of bell & string &.I must invent some otherll position. Thursday morning, I am writing this letter by installments. Two gentlemen from the Oneida Community have just seen downtown their last paper “The free church circular” contains a long article on dress. ylt is excellent. If you do not get that paper I will send YOU 036» I isend you the names of those men & women that are to be recipients of father's boundy here. as Henry had no time to attend to it I got George Price to do his duty for him. Henry is at Canandeigua now engaged in a very important suit. When Charley goes to New Jersey, if con- ivenient for him, I wish he would settle up Neil’sbil1S & I W111 39tt19 with him‘ I sould love to meet the gentry at Peterboro but I Cann0t cleave home with my baby now.

Work down this way, then you come a stay with me, & hiss Clarke with Mrs Bloomer a I will assist you in getting up such a lecture as you desire. We will get up a meeting here a dot shat we can to advance the interests of the society. I think that you a hrs. Eallowell a I have as good as right to infuse what we make of the radical principle into the proceedings of the society, as the miserable time serving conservatives have to infuse their principles of policy & expediency. I think that address of Mrs. V. is altogether too small namby— pamby to go forth from any society claiming the reason we as a society do. Let the thing drop. I will address the women of the state as an individual, in due time, but this is be» tween us. I am not astonished at what you.srite me of Mrs. Gould. The church is the great engine of oppression in our day & you will always find church members trnckling & politic. If my address would serve you as a kind of skeleton for a lecture I will send it to you & you can fill out the heads, more fully. I am hoping to hear a good account of Miss Clarke. i have no doubt a little practice will make you an admirable lecturer. I will go to work at once & write you.the best lecture I can. Dress loose, take a great deal of exercise & be particular about your diet & sleep enoug, the body has great effect upon the mind, In your meetings if you are simple a truth loving no sophistry can confound you. Try and get subscribers for the Lily wherever you go, & make hrs. B pay you something for your trouble. I will talk to her about you an agent for the Lily, she needs an agent & you seelyou could easily attend to that in your meetings. I have a book just adapted to your wants a prize essay in temperance going over the whole ground, which I will send you if you tell me where, or keep it until you come. I sent you the report of the temperance anniversary read it clearly & you will see that many are already prepared to carry this question sith the churches. You.sill see in Clarke of Boston Brainerd and of Philadelphia, the idea hinted at. Shell our society lead or follow public sentinent~. ~ I say lead. Have you read Emersons speech to hossuth? read it and note what he says of majorities. I A Good night E.

Well, on Tuesday nigh: I walked nearly three miles, shopped & made five calls - came home, slept good all night & on Wednesday morning at six I awoke with a little pain, which I well understood. I jumped up bathed & dressed myself, hurried the breakfast eating none myself of course, got the house & all things in order working bravely between the pains. I neither sat down or laid I down until half past nine when I gave up all my vocations & avocations secular & domestic & devoted myself to the one point then brought especially before my mind. At ten o'clock the whole work was completed. The nurse & Amelia alone officiating. I had no Dr. & Henry was in lsyracuse. I laid down about fifteen minutes & never had so speedy & easy a time before although this is the largest child I ever had weighing 12 pounds clothes on. She is very large & plump & her head is covered with black curly hair & oh how I do rejoice in her & now what shall I call her. What is the meat beautiful name ever given to woman? I shall not name her after anyone, for friendships are such passing changing things in the present undeveloped state of the race that the friend of today is the cold stern critic of tomorrow & then how trying to call a loved one by aname that always brings with it a train of most unpleasant associations. When the baby was twenty- four hours old I got up bathed & dressed, sponge bath & sits bath, put on the wet bandage, ate my breakfast walked on the piazza & then the day being beautiful I took a ride of three miles on the plank road, came home rested an hour or so then read the newspapers & wrote a log; letter to Mama. Today I go about as usual. Everything with.me & the baby is as it should be, as yet all things move on right & my joy in being the mother of a precious little girl is more than I can tell you. Now do come & see me right off. The short dress I wore until the last. It is grand for such an occasion & I love it more than ever, Well nhe sitz bath.has never come & if it is not too late just countermand the order as I do not need it now. Love to all,your happy cousin Libs <To €l.o.bav6~5C€.. S‘,.o..rcUlcc.'m-n)

We need say nothing of the merits of this eork having already run through six editions, its popularity is of course its highest commendation. But oh: that one agonizing pain, how dare any aoman try that more than once. ﬂﬁﬁ Oh! how my eoald died within me as I approached that dreaded never-to~be~forgotten ordeal. I laid me down had two oaine which brought the baoy,in fifteen minutee the aeed wee & here I am in the land of the living rejoicing that a female child is born into the world. I suppose you got Kit's letter telling you of the arrival of Miss Harriet Eaton last Sunday afternoon. We are all rejoiced that no boy was sent in her stead. Maggie's joy over her little sister is unbounded. She ieéa nice baby & has plenty of dark brown hair, deep blue eyes, a very rosy complexion & is said to look just like Kit. I wish dear Julius felt as much at ease as I now do but the time will soon be here &"that gain" will introduce to the World Miss Ann Miller. How is Cousin Nancy? that does Cousin G. say to the ﬁteformanoes in Congress? I thi 3 the virtues of w the "etaving off“ policy have been fairly tre*‘;gt Tell Cousin N. i3Auu3 to read the next numbers of "Little Dmrrit” it is a sad story thus far but very interesting as everything of Dickens ie. Do write eeoon & tell me what you are all doing & saying & thinking. e Love to Charley, each & all Goodnight Your Coueint Lib PS Howie Neal Barclay? (To Elizabeth Smith M:11er)

Have I said or done ought against anything saored or divine? Am Igto make another marriage oontraot, or what? I like to be prepared for whatever may oome. On Thursday I expect lﬂarriet & Daddy, May & Libby. Do write to may whilst she is here to spend a day with you on her return. I wish her to see Cousin G's house & your baby. I send you a note from Tryphena. It is quite flattering to see the excitement about our beautiful babies. Tell Green he quite mistook my reason for leaving ?. so soon - it was because I saw that Charley was greatly distressed at the superiority of my baby & then I know that Cousin G would not return until I did leave, as he must have heard through Cousin Nancy & Mrs. Tallman of the rare beauty of my second daughter. Therefore he dreaded the encounter. I What does Cousin G think of affairs at Washington. We shall be in the midst of violenoe,blood & civil war before we look for it. Out fair republic must be the victim of the monster slavery unless we speedily rise in our might & boldly shout for freedom. We are all well. The weather here is very cold. We fear a frost tonight. Now Julius do come hither in June . Nannie _will be quite presentable in another month. Remember me to Amadamoiselle. Do write soon. Tell Charley the Junius meeting begins on Sunday. Much love to Cousin G. V Goodnight Your devoted Johnson PS —Oh$ Julius, shat glorious nights for sleeping. How I do love to sleep. elf you have eggs for breakfast tomorrow tell Charles hey must not put the shells in the dish. If he does it when he oomes here I shall take each shell out carefully with the sugar tongs & put them in the slop bowl & give him a withering look.i

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.

He lays his talents & wealth at our feet, giving us a triumphant journey through the states, papers re- porting three a four columns. Now you must suppose we lack common sense to drop the only influential man in the nation who is ready to stand by our guns. No! no! I love the cause of women too well. toasesaisgch a power. I shall not forget how, our reformers haveetésﬁeethemselres in the past on this qnes~ tion hos, in our Constitutional conrention,.not one leading man in the state pleaded our cause before its members. Beecher even turned a deaf ear to all our pleadings. Greeley betrayed us. Tilton & Phillips silent, & but for that grand speech of Curtis history aould.have taken no note of our demand. 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! With kind regards Yours sincerely E Cady Stanton
