Will you tell me who Mrs. Clara Bewick Colby is,who claims to be the founder of the Federal Amendment movement? If Illinois is going to do any effective work we do not wish to enter into any entangling alliances. I will send you very soon a leaflet tell- ing about the legislative work that we have been doing at Springfield this year. I was very sorry not to see more of you while you were in Chicago, but the Conference was planned at a most inepportune time and without consultation with Illinois. It was necessary for me to leave the first day of the Conference for Springfield as the situation at that time in the Legislature was most critical.

Miss Laura Clay, Richmond, Dear Miss Laura: ‘ Elise writes suggesting that we begin getting up petitions for the lflgislature. I had been meaning to write you on the subject when I found Mrs. Valentine was already doing it in Virginia. Do you think we ought to start right away? It gives them something specific to do anyhow. If so, won't you be good enough to prepare the form of the petition and to instruct me a little about getting them ready. I feel somewhat hazy. I suppose you saw that Miss Van Pelt Was married. I got the news less than a week before the time that she was to go to work for me. I had been pinning my hopes to her for the great work of the summer, and was going to get every annual railroad pass I could in her name, because I thought she would be the most valuable of my workers. AI sopke in Shelbyville Saturday to a good crowd. I think we have now succeeded in rejuvenating the League there. I am very much pleased with Mrs. Knollenberg's work. She goes next to henry and Cldham counties, but quits work for a vacation of a nonth the first of August, arranged for before I got her. If the sum total of her month's work seems to me as good as this first work in Shelby County, I rather believe A tildetfzi “:3 I“? we ought to theme her permanently. , —‘ to decide the matter pretty soon, as Louisville will orobhbly make her an offer to be at State Headquarters in the fall. I think today that I am going to get Mr. Marsh to start at once and give us a month's work, though I must say I am a little bit doubtful about him. At any rate, it won't hurt to try. He is engaged from the middle of August for sometime with the prohibitionists in Ohio. 80 my trial willwgnly be to determine future usefulness and won’t We 77% Q/ awn/p.71“; give mefmuehaimmediate help. In Flemingsburg last week, where I also believe I got the league though to going —AI am not dead sure yet - I met again Mrs. Demoss, formerly miss Cassidy of this county. Her husband, you remember, was principal of Johnson School and was dismissed. He is a very intelligent man and a convinced suffragist, but a little eratic. He is a Proffessor now in some college in Missouri and is studying this summer at Chicago University. He was conducting the institute at Flemingsburg and he and Mrs. DeMoss were to go back to Chicago the next day. Miss Yancey of Mason County, whose judgment I value highly, told me that Mrs. Deuces had read at the institute that morning one of the best papers she had ever heard on suffrage. hrs. Deuces told me that night that she would be in Kentucky again this fall and hoped to be able to help with the suffrage work. I asked her if i might get her even earlier than that and if she would be willing to do paid organizing. I am pretty sure that she would be very fine at this, as her personality is pleasing and her reputation here as a teacher in the county schools was of the very highest. My only doubt is whether she can speak instead of reading a paper and I think that rather important. Since beginning this letter,'I have determined to simply make carbon copies of it and send each member of the Board and get them to return to me with marginal comments and advice. I will in the meantime, write Mrs. DeMoss and see if diam right in concluding that she would be {2” available for the sort of work I want. I am trying to send speakers this year only to the teachers’ institutes where the superintendents invite us, and I am more than ever convinced that what we want is a person that will go and stay in a county two weeks or more as Mrs. hnollenberg has done, until something is really affected. I have your letter in which you say if submitted to the vote of the Board you would vote yes as to helping New Jersey. I now submit this to vote of the Board. I believe all the members under— stand the situation so well that it is not necessary for me to point out the pivotal importance of New Jersey's going right. How much aid would you suggest we give. I think this Question and that of the organizers also depends somewhat on funds and I suggest that the treasurer send to each member of the Board at once a postal—card statement as to the condition. of the treasury. I have not yet succeeded in getting a chairman of finance. I only heard the other day that Mrs. Lacey’s husband has been very ill and is possibly dead. I have been wondering why I had no reply to my most entreating letter to her asking her to act as finance chairman. Are there any more funds from which we can have further money for this year's work? (This question is for hiss Laura to answer) cordially yours, a. lu@. @th L - (Mrs. Desha Breckinridge) Indian Cave Farm Charlestcwn Ind 7 /17 '15 Dear Miss Clay I am so sorry you took so much trouble . I am the same "lady from Elorida ", although I came here a year ago 3 It had been so long I hesitated yo mention it in my letter The change in sentiment in Florida is wonderful 3 It is almost as difficult to find anyone opposed as it was when I started to find anyone who agreed . The paper that shut us out , under the same ownership and management is now really a suffrage paper , and open to us . Not knowing the owner you cannot appreciate the value of this. I have done very little except answer foolish articles in opposition, and that is child's work you know . But at all times and seasons I am an "argufying " suffragist . I am an old woman now , the work does not need me , and the result is assured, only a question of time , I came back to Florida three years after Mr Chamberlain left me , and have been there until last year , I spoke with very flattering success in M0 on The Bible fordaqual Rights 3 and churches were open to me all over the country. You know rural communities ,uninformed and fearful are prone to find the Bible opposed . I have however never faced an audience since Mr Chamberlain went away . My aid an inspiration was gone . We have here a young preacher ,a Southern man , whose wife called me up to tell me I had about converted him : "He had never heard any one talk sensibly about it before ". Never heard anyone probably. The suffrage ladies in Louisville told me they expected you and would let me know when you came ,but I never heard . y a” \JV&WW?Z: J J W /%fl /” / 2 ' W \fl f [A a D .
