peelyour paper what speaks so consistently
and fealipgly on this subiick-Y sir l
cant expires to you my onconsolidated in
dignashun at sieh perseedins AS these ere
woman eonvenshuns-they mir sappin the
very fowndashuns of our numerical insti-
tutions--And the very men that air fool
ish enough ter jine in with the wimmin
are the agertatin men that broat on the
air very Garrison that sp:k to the con-
venshun was one of the mean men that
broat on the war--If he and them others
like him haddent sed any thing about
slavery bat had let the niger bin where
they was thar woodent bin amy war
and thar woodent IA bin amy bondholders
nor no SIGH taxes as we halter pay now
Y sir twont no longer agone yesterday
that Liza pade too dollers and thirty ate
sents for oppressive skool tax and that
amt awl sir tina air tryin ter bid d new
skool house in the Holler deestrick and
my old woman SEES if she and the rest of
the wimmin Good vote thade hav it bilt-
but thanks to the men who new the infe-
riority OF the feminine race and II aid the
laws write ia the beginning they kant
vote and thro away the peoples munney
on SIGH extravagans-the old skool house
is the very Won whar | was ederkated
and if it was good anuf for me its good
anuf for my younguns ter go to. L tell
you Mister Editer we shood kount the
cost in thsse ere hi times before we go
inter the extravagans of bildin new skool
houses and SIGH things
But these wimmin don't no nothin
about bisness and wood jest cripple awl
of the bisness of the Holler if they Good
Yote-Now sens the cold snap fruz up the
saw mill there aint much bisness goin on
except at the tayern-and sir do you no
that these ear wimmin wood jist stop the
traid at that plais if they had CHAINS
Liza sed SO tother day-And sir I wanter
sa anuther thing about this ere woman

Etens old woman and mine jest have the
preperseshernal imperdence TO tel us that
if they Good vote and hold offs they wood
stop us from gittin any Ticker in this town.
Now sir I peel to you to say if that for
her to act in SIGH manner is aceordin to
the constertooshun which seq woman
shall love serv and oba her husband-And
then sir [ wood ask you if jest bekoz she
happens to own the plais We live on
becos her father decided it to her insted of
me that she orter act so unladylike and
unwomanly as to wanter dicktait about
the bildin of skoolhouses and so far unsex
herself as ter go inter that air old dirty
skool hous to vote-and then jest think
what chans there wood be for fuss in
the immackerlate sanktity of hum if after
the meetin was over I shood wanter call
at the tavern and hav a soshal visit and
she was alongside woodent go of coars
and when l gut hum | coodent pasify her
by sain that the metin kept late and l
was a lyin and that woodent never do
Hoo nose but what case like this mite
braik up family-It don't Civ man no
chance to sho his superiority and talk
those little konvivyal snifters that cum
ter them that vote on the rite side
1t wood re in anger ate politix--It wood
be hard for politishuns and voters-It
wood literally braik up the soshal siense
of the kuntry and shet up anvil the ticker
shops of the towns and in that way bring
stagnation of bisness broad cast inter the
land, for not morn won woman in twenty
wood go for ticker sellin and thare vote
taken with the prohibishernists vote wood
turn the skale and stop trade. But thanks
to those noble men, Honorable Mr.. Duey
and Revirind Mr.. Lord who boldly step
forth to defend our rites and show the in
feeriority and 10 breedin in them that air
engaged in this revolushunary work-Tha
will be eauled the binifactors of the noble
rails of men if they suck seed in turnin
back this tied of thretened oppreshun of
masker line raics and indurn movements
shall be erecktid at every tavern in the
land where they sell Ticker and we at the
Holler will hold, meetins to rejoice that
threw there inf1ooens the wimmin havint
bin able to degraid themselves by meetin
in our ole skool hous and votin away the |
peoples mummy to bid skool houses and
stop Ticker sellen.
Yours in hast,
