1918 memoir opens window to suffrage movement views - The Boston Globe

1918 memoir opens window to suffrage movement views - The Boston Globe:
"HARTFORD — Cheryl Dunson knew she had found something special when she saw the small black notebook, covered in a plastic sleeve, inside a cardboard box of old memorabilia at the Connecticut League of Women Voters.
The notebook, found last year, contained the views of Connecticut legislators on the issue of women’s suffrage.
Recorded inside, in meticulous blue script, were the memoirs of a suffrage leader who interviewed members of the all-male Connecticut General Assembly more than 90 years ago on whether women should be granted the right to vote."
