An account of the resource
<p style="text-align:left;">The Lewis collection includes a diverse assortment of materials that document the expanding role and status of women from the early nineteenth century until after women won the right to vote in 1920. Correspondence, conference programs, speeches, position papers, newsletters, sheet music, congressional reports, stock certificates, printed materials, and more present a view of the individuals and organizations that fought for and against political, economic, and social rights for women. <br /><br />The records primarily document the American suffrage movement; but also include material on the suffrage movement in England and several other European countries, as well as a wide range of issues including education, organized labor, social welfare, temperance, voter education, slavery, wartime experiences, and the women’s club movement.</p>

E. Abington Aug. 21st ‘72
Mr. Curtiss,
Dear Sir,
As agent of the Mass. Woman Suffrage Ass. I propose to visit Berkshire Co. Sept. 15th, there to remain a month. Can you make an appointment for me to lecture in your town during the month? Should prefer the first week, as I have engagements in that vicinity. We expect the friends who make these appointments for us to hire the hall, see that the bills which I will send you are well posted, and that some responsible person meets the lecturer at the depot to inform her where she is to be entertained. The association assumes all expenses but it is desirable that the friends in the different towns pay there [sic] expenses, still that is not required. The meetings are free, a collection to be taken in the hall. Was instructed to write to you by a lady of G. Barrington as an influential citizen, though she was ignorant of your principles. Trusting that you will use your influence to get me a hearing whatever your principles may be, and will reply to me immediately I remain
Yours truly,
Miss Hulda B. Loud
