value "a been received by the Penn
sylvania suffragists, but none have
been appreciated more than this gift,
which came from the pension en-
velope of a bent and aged veteran
of the Civil War.
Their was a message with the gift
which enhanced it's value. 1t came
from Private George Fl. Weaver, OF
the 201st Regiment of Pennsylvania
Volunteers. one OF the gallant little
band that checked Moseby's raiders in
their guerilla attacks on the Northern
forces in Virginia during the trouble
some winter of 1868.
IT fought to free the negroes" the
message read. "and I feel that it is
only right that 1 should do something
to win the same rights for our wo-
men. Unfortunately, / am MOI as
young as l was in those days. II
would be impossible for me now to
even take the stump for the cause
that l believe in. But I have a pension
envelope hat ome in regularly and
l am sending you a share of its May
contents. / hope 1t will be of help"
CHEEKY Old Veteran
Newspapermen who called TODAY at
the home of Private" Weaver, at 1911
Penn street, this city, found a CHEEKY
old veteran whose spirit has refused to
succumb to either age or the infrmi-
ties that are part Of his wartime hertz
age.
yes, I made a contribution to the
s~uffragists," he said. 81 did it for two
reasons. First, because all my life I've
believed in the kind of freedom and
government that Lincoln stood for the
Kind that gives the same privileges to
all who assist in bearing its burdens.
Then again, I want the women to have
the vote because of the good they can
do with it. 1 believe in them"-some
of the youthful fire came back into the
tired old eyes of the veteran-"I've
never known them to fight for any
thing that was wrong. And God
knows that is the kind of people we
want to help make our lawsl'
MT. Weaver refused to take any
credit for his donation to the suffrage
cause. In fact, he became embar-
raised when told of the grateful en-
thusiasm with which the State suff-
ragists had received his gift.
I'm just trying to live up to my
principles" he said, land il I live
until election day I'll vote for them.
If every good citizen does the same
the women will win."
