Invitation from Ralph Brewster to Edward Newton Merrill, State Senator from Maine and a member of the League's executive committee, to attend a meeting of the Men's Equal Suffrage League in the Maine House of Representatives to organize for the upcoming suffrage referendum campaign. The meeting was open to the public.
In 1917, the Maine Suffrage Amendment was defeated by a vote of 40,000 to 20,000. In 1919, Maine became the third New England state to ratify the federal amendment and when a referendum vote was held, Maine women won the right to vote in presidential elections.
