Excerpt from British Freewomen: Their Historical Privilege I was told that, though they formed valuable contributions to Constitutional History, the Committee felt they would cer tainly lead to political discussion, which must not be risked. At a public meeting in Aberdeen the same week, I gave a resum??? of my arguments, and the materials then collected I have frequently used since in Drawing-room Addresses, and in private conversation; in public papers, and in friendly cor respondence.

My first authorities were Sydney Smith's Enfranchisement of \voman the Law of the Land and Mr. Chisholm Anstey's Book and Papers on The Representation of the People's Acts Thence I went through the materials of Constitutional History, the Statutes, Rolls of Parliament, State Papers, Parliamentary \vrits, Journals of the House of Commons, Reports of Cases, Works on Law, History, and Archeo logy, both printed and manuscript.
