See Mr. Charles K. Tuckerman's account in the Magazine of American History for October, 1886; also, Lib. 34: 55. For a clever travesty by Orpheus C. Kerr (R. H.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony were the organizers and untiring workers in this movement ( Hist. Woman suffrage, 2: 50-89). Mr. Garrison, who had spent the month of August at Plymouth, Mass., lectured frequently during the autumn, chiefly in cities and towns within easy reach of Boston. The fall elections resulted triumphantly for the Republicans, thus strengthening the Administration in its emancipation policy; and now two of the Border States were moving to abolish slavery within their own limits, and to bring themselves into the ranks of the free States.
