Executive Committee to ask you to aid us, and speak at as many of our
meetings as possible. Please answer at once, and let us know how much

Yours truly, S. N. WOOD,

BANGOR, ME., _May 9, 1867_.

DEAR MISS ANTHONY:--I should be truly glad to attend the Annual
Meeting; but, as you see, I am far from New York. Mr. Davis and I are

the youth in our midst, rapidly advancing to the stage of action, will
form a powerful phalanx on the side of "Equal Rights" and the
elevation of humanity.

Yours fraternally, MARY F. DAVIS.

from which to exclude her must, like any other great wrong, bring
misery and sorrow to the race.

Sincerely your friend, RUFUS SAXTON.

MY DEAR MRS. STANTON:--your invitation to me to lift my voice at your
Annual Convention in behalf of the cause for which you have worked so
faithfully and so long, and, let me add, so efficiently, was duly
received; but I have an universal excuse for neglect of duty in the
multitudinous professional engagements that absorb my life and
strength. Believing in the justice of your cause, and that better laws
and better order would bless our race could they be submitted to the
arbitrament of wo
