Abstract

"[W]hen this lady, I say, was pointed out at concert ot opera - at public meetings, or scientific lecture as 'Dr. Greenfell, the lady physician, you know, who has such a practice, and actually gives lectures to lady students. Oh! and speaks in public, &c,' there would be a start, an astonished look, an incredulous smile, and a 'No, surely; why she does not look a bit that sort of woman.' As if 'that sort of woman' were a species of monster." [p.145]
