[97] _The Lily_ was a temperance paper started in Seneca Falls, N. Y.,
in 1849. It was owned and edited by Mrs. Amelia Bloomer. Though
starting as the organ of a society, it soon became her individual
property. She carried it successfully six years, her subscription list
reaching 4,000. It was as pronounced on woman's rights as temperance,
and did good service in both reforms. We are indebted to _The Lily_
for most of our facts on the temperance movement in New York.

[99] Throughout this protracted, disgraceful assault on American
womanhood, the clergy baptized each new insult and act of injustice in
the name of the Christian religion, and uniformly asked God's blessing
on proceedings that would have put to shame an assembly of Hottentots.

Burliegh, Ct.; Edward M. Davis, Pa.; Frances Dana Gage, Mo.; Ash
