Miss Laura Clay,
Lexington, Kentucky.

My dear Miss Clay:

We are all very much interested in the
Federal Amendment. 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.

Cordially yours,

/€%%4144>a Ltélygiguas fi:;;;L1/<

Lexington, Ky., July 1,. 1915.
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 -

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

Dear Miss Claytv
I am glad you are going to Stanford and Mt. VernOR, Rnfl a3 it
seems to be impossible for any one there to taks charge of the
arrangements, i shall go,myaelf,for that purpnme. Mrs Wouds writas
that she 1g Suffering with rheumatimm and it wil; be impossible
for her to take hold, but thera in a lady thnre, Miss Josenhiue
Hayden, who belongfi to the Fayette League, arfl I will consult with
her about the mattmr, and beliave we can get out a good JrOWfi.
Thare will be no troubla about Mt. Vernon, because Prof,
Ir"1ne, Mrs. Robinson and Mrs. Gentry will 100% aftar it there,

Very truly yours
