My Dear Mrs. Stanford

On arriving home - Mrs. Sargents - I learned that Mrs. Clara B. is to come over to help on the amendment - Therefore - May I ask you to give [--instead--] a pass to Miss Harriet May Mills - that is give one to Miss Mills instead of Mrs. Colby -- This - and the one to Miss Carrie Chapman Catt - you may send me at the above address.

It was a good visit I had to-day - and dear Mrs. Sargent feels exceedingly delighted with my report of your proposal to help along our good work all in your power.

Miss Shaw with her private secretary - (my niece) has gone to Martenez [sic] -- Miss Hay telephones from head-quarters - 564 Emporium Building - that the Republican Union League Club have invited Miss Shaw to speak for them Saturday night -- she goes to San Diego for Monday night! So you see Miss Shaw is to be kept busy - I go to Watsonville - Santa Cruz County on the evening train - had I known it this morning I would have gone to you prepared to spend the night and go from Menlo Park tomorrow morning - instead of from here - but your courtesy enables me to go free of cost to the Campaign Committee. So I rejoice - and go rejoicing

With love & gratitude

Susan B. Anthony

P.S. - And good bye to Mrs. Lathrop & Miss Stanford - with my kind regards!!
