Tenafly N.J. 1872

Dear Mr. Brown,
As every adverse wind that blows in the social world is attributed to woman’s suffrage and our friends even are timid just now, please notice our convention respectfully & if you can conscientiously give them a word of cheer. Only think of it too, only 400,000 women voted in England at the last election, and yet we are denied the right in a republic.
With kind regards

Yours sincerely

Elizabeth Cady Stanton
