The Life and Work of Susan B. Anthony (Volume 1 of 2)

CHAPTER X
5/34

You are one of those who are sufficient unto themselves and I thank God every day for you.

Antoinette can not come because she is so busy with that baby!" From Mr.May came these comforting words: "We sympathize in all your trials and hope that fairer skies will be over your head before long.
