rliest workers, giving of time and money liberally
without regard to party or sectionalism. Mr. John Hutchinson and
family went through Kansas with the lecturing tourists, in 1867,
and with their inspiring songs for freedom did much toward
increasing the vote for woman suffrage. They still continue their
work, penetrating into the most benighted regions, for freedom,
temperance, peace, and the reign of righteousness; they are doing
their quota in the world's great work.

Mrs. Mary F. Davis has been from the first a most able and
efficient advocate; her winning, gentle manners, her courtesy and
respect for the rights of others have been unvarying. If not

cause. There is another movement that began in this decade now
closed upon us, which properly belongs to its history, viz: that
of the Working Women. It has been represented from Boston by Miss
Jennie Collins, a slight woman, all brain and soul. She tells her
stories with such a tender, natural pathos that few eyes are dry
during her speeches. She makes no pretense, but gives most
