About this Item

Political materials from the library of the prominent suffragist, with his ink ownership initials on the front wrappers of "Dare to be Wise", Extracts from the Report for 1908, and Working Women and the Poor Law. The pamphlets deal with women's social and economic status, prisoner's rights, and religion. Hugh Franklin (1889-1962) joined the Men's League for Women's Suffrage in 1909. He was imprisoned three times for his militant actions during the women's suffrage campaign, which included attacking Winston Churchill with a dog whip. He went on hunger strike each time he was incarcerated and was force-fed on multiple occasions. He later married the suffragette Elsie Duval. i) LYON BLEASE, Walter.
