“As for Suffrage I don’t think I have fully made up my mind, but I will say that I think there is more to it than people realize, and that the real deep thinkers for Suffrage are not the rabbid [sic] mob who were lately trying to blow up Westminster Abbey.”

Letters of Jenny Gilbert Jerome, Class of 1911

"You musn't worry about Woman's Suffrage. There are more than one kind. Can you imagine Lady Woolley behaving as those English women? And yet I understand she is quite a famous Suffragette. I hope to be a lady always. "

"I am modeling after Jane Addams and Miss Woolley."
