Summary: | Catt was president of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, and Miller was a delegate to the Alabama constitutional convention in 1901. In this letter she expresses her hope that women's suffrage will be addressed at the convention: "At this date, twenty-five States have extended to women some form of limited suffrage, and four have granted full suffrage on precisely the same qualifications as are required of male voters. We do not, therefore, ask your consideration of a new or untried proposition." |
