Letter from Mrs. E. H. Hanley and Mrs. J. W. Mills in Attalla, Alabama, to Governor W. W. Brandon in Montgomery, Alabama.
The two women were officers in the Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Attalla. In the letter they "wish to add our protest to the many thousands already sent in, against the present convict lease system, which we learn has existed (a blot on our fair state) since 1843."
