In October she secured Mrs.Tracy Cutler for awhile, and later Frances D.Gage, J.
Elizabeth Jones and Lucy N.Coleman, but was obliged to hold many meetings alone.

These were continued at intervals through the fall of 1859 and the winter and spring of 1860, and numerous pages of foolscap are still in existence containing a carefully kept account of the expenses.

Each meeting was made partly to pay for itself, the lecturers received $12 a week, Miss Anthony herself taking only this sum, and it may be believed that no more extended and effective propaganda work ever was accomplished with the same amount of money.

While this was being done, she also assisted Clarina Howard Nichols and Susan E.
Wattles to plan an important campaign in Kansas with money furnished from the Jackson fund.
She received the following characteristic letter from Rev.Thomas K.
Beecher when she asked for the use of his church in Elmira: "I will answer for myself and afterwards append the decision of the trustees.
Anybody with good moral character and clean feet is welcome to use our meeting house, if they like, but were I you I should prefer Holden's Hall.

But, lastly, I should shrink from holding such a meeting.
