Notes

• -  At the request of Harriot Blatch, Anne Fitzhugh Miller organizes a local telegram campaign by prominent male members of Geneva Political Equality Club to Joint Judiciary Committee of NY legislature, urging that they act favorably on the suffrage amendment. Marginal notes in Anne Fitzhugh Miller's hand document "Eight telegrams to Joint Judiciary committee from 9 members" On this and the following scrapbook page Anne Fitzhugh Miller numbers the telegrams and provides text, perhaps preparing for report to Geneva Political Equality Club.
• -  Anti-suffragist letter to editor and Geneva Times editorial response point out that 300 suffragists in a town of 13,000 don't constitute "public sentiment"
