wThe Life of Elizabeth Cady Stanton”

was not without resemblance to that of Queen Victoria. With all due respect
for the rebel of Seneca Falls, the two women had much in common. In their
amazing energy, their nonchalant maternity, their selection of worthy and
well-descended consorts. their pre-occupation with political affairs, they were
not dissimilar. The analogy, however, only serves to point the contrast.
Splendid examples both of the matriarchal type, they had nothing else in
common. All the humour, chivalry and intellect which the English Queen
lacked was abundantly bestowed upon the American feminist. Under a
matriarchate. Elizabeth Cady Stanton would have been the greatest mother
of them all; but, born as she was under the patriarchal order, she became one
of the most brilliant opposition leaders in all history.” The Freeman.

“A LADY WITH A SPINE”

ELIZABETH CADY STANTON

As Revealed in Her Letters,

Diary, and Reminiscences
Edited by Theodore Stanton
and Harriot Stanton Blatch

‘4 NE gathers that there were times when Mrs. Stanton had

too much spine, even for her fellow-workers. Most of
them favored peaceful, non-resistant step by step measures.
When they were afraid of the name Revolution for the suffrage
paper, she announced that they might call it the Rosebud if
they liked; for her part a revolution in the status of women was

exactly what she meant.”—The New Republic.
