NAWSA GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE   Bascom, Emma C.

Williamstown, Mass.
July 10, 1891.

My dear Mrs. Stone,
In response to your 
letter, Mr. Bascom wishes
me to write that he will
be happy to serve you and
the cause in making
all needed arrangements
for Suffrage Meeting
"A mass meeting, especially
inviting the students" will
give best promise of large
success, he thinks: - and
that the second week of

Mr. Bascom will be here -
With warmest regards of the
[our] family to yourself and husband,
Yours very Sincerely,
Emma C. Bascom.


October will be favorable time.
He will try to secure the
Cong. Church. The fame of
the speaker will call
out a good audience
we trust.  If you have 
any posters printed for
Mr. Hoar - you will save
us half dozen.

I am sorry we shall
not be in our home at the
time mentioned, and cannot
have the pleasure of
meeting and entertaining
Mr. Hoar- Mr. White, college
treasurer, will receive him.

[*Mrs. Bascom

2nd week in Oct.*]

Williamstown,, Mass.
July 30th 1891.

My dear Mrs. Stone -
We are glad you 
are coming in large force,
for our people are hard
to conquer - The church
is secured for afternoon
and evening, to the surprise
and even dismay of some
of the church members!
    The time must be changed, 
since the Meeting of the  
A.B.C.Y.M. has been appointed
on the second week of Oct.

and would greatly conflict
with your convention.
Mr. Bascom thinks
the last week of Sept-
unfavorable for the students.
Can you not manage either
for the first or third 
week of October? Address
us at Sheffield, Mass.
We leave tomorrow.
I am sorry to lose the 
great pleasure of seeing
and hearing you and your
noble husband.
With great love and
admiration. Yours always,
Emma C. Bascom.


Mrs. Bascomb
