...truly a notable occasion when Equal Suffrage is again to be presented in Harvard halls by a woman lecturer. Militancy, however, will not be in order today as it was two years ago when Mrs. Pankhurst created a storm centre in Brattle Hall. People went to hear Mrs. Pankhurst more from curosity than interest; those who go to hear Miss Todd tonight will reverse these motives.

From the French Revolution and the Reform Act of 1832 in England, women learned by experience that although they helped men to win political freedom, they were excluded their proper privileges on account of their sex after that freedom was won.
