Abstract

Account of Mr. and Mrs. Haweis' 'At Home', which they hosted to discuss the issue of female suffrage. Mrs. Haweis opened the meeting, and then gave over to Mrs. Fawcett, who "spoke in her usual clear, logical, and convincing manner," discussing in particular those arguments often voiced against women's suffrage. Mrs. Fawcett was followed by Mrs. Wynford Philipps, who "was, as she always is, so thoroughly in earnest that one could not listen unmoved to her eloquent appeal to women [...]." Other speakers followed.
