Additional Details

"I comply with your request and in turn make one of you--that is, ask you to consult 'the powers that be'--either of your Public School or Village Library--and see if you cannot get them to buy a set of the History of Woman Suffrage--that it may [stand] upon the shelves, where every student may refer to it, and get facts, rather than misrepresentations. . . ."
