Description: This is a series of letters between two fictional characters, Delight Dennison--an out-of-work teacher--and her friend, Barbara Martin. They are set in the community of Canton and document Dennison's transformation from anti-suffragism into an ardent worker for the woman suffrage campaign in her state. There are widespread references here to Canton and to political bossism and also some references to this being a western state. The letters document an unsuccessful state campaign and show how men supported the suffrage campaign.
