Louisa K. Fast 1920s Letter from Bess Armstrong Hawes
No full textA letter to Louisa K. Fast from Bess Armstrong Hawes (Mrs. MC. Armstrong). It is not dated. Louisa K. Fast was a prominent member in the Women's Suffrage Association, which later became the League of Women Voters in 1920. She was employed by the LWV to speak throughout Ohio to encourage women to form local chapters of the group. Later, Miss Fast was employed in the New York office of the International Relations Branch of the LWV. The collection of Louisa K. Fast correspondence are related to the League of Women Voters. This letter is from a private collection and was loaned to the library by Bonnie Boroff. The letter's contents are as follows.
Dear Miss Fast:
I wish I could stow myself away in your present and go with you.
If I could look back over the last few years & feel that I had done half as much for anything as worthwhile as The League of Women Voters & the C & CJ war it would be a very satisfactory feeling.
You might be interested to know that when the couple who owned the guppies took them home they made the fresh water too cold & all died (I had no report on the turtle).
Thank you for your card. Of course you were too busy to see me & I was in bed or just off it with jaundice & couldn't get to any meetings.
Bon Voyage,
Bess Armstrong Hawes

Petition of James Hawes, and 79 others, that the Court of Common Pleas may be abolished.

Various reasons include the length of time taken for a judgment and the cost for bringing cases that were not heard during the term, resulting in nuisance settlements. Petitioners also sought to change the debtor's law, noting that the current process required suits from each creditor instead of a joint process. The petition is addressed to the Senate and House of Representatives in Legislature. Included is a memo dated January 31, 1838, from George C. Getchell, Clerk, House of Representatives, that orders that 1000 copies be printed for the use of the Legislature
