Elizabeth Cady Stanton's letter to father

Dear Father,

How are you and mom doing? I want to tell you many thing that going on. And I hope you are still not mad at me, that I married Henry Brewster Stanton. I met a woman named Susan B. Anthony, I don't really like her at first but we work together and we start to become a great friend. I would like you and mom to meet her though. Both of us lead the Women's State Temperance Society, and I was glad how strong I keep fighting on. We also begin a women's rights campaign by trying to expand New York's Married Women's Property Law of 1848. And most of all, my baby boy named Robert Livingston Stanton was born! I haven't written to you for many years, but now on I will write you every two month if I could. So, please don't be mad. Some of my fellow friends are arrested, and I thought the police will protect them. How foolish I thought that way. I already know that, men always thought of us in useless and bad but, and I'm not saying it's you father. You are always working hard for the family and you are the best father in earth. Remember that I still fight for women's right even the day I die. Please pray for your caring daughter to make it happen. Thanks, dad.

From your caring daughter,

Elizabeth Cady Stanton
