NAWSA GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE May, Abby W. 

Abby W. May

Thank you dear Miss Stone
for your kind letter. I will
most certainly go with
you to see the Governor,
if your time is one that
is possible for me.
On Thursday morning
I cannot go, but I know
of no other impossible time
just now.
But I cannot go to Washington,
much as I would like 
to do so. The meeting
comes just at the time of
my mother's birthday (93rd!) &
I could not leave her then

if she is still hers; as I 
ardently hope, though I 
feel it doubtful at times, 
she is so very feeble. 
I would always like to say 'yes' 
to your requests, even 
when I knew I was 
wholly inadequate to the 
duty  to which you[surround
us. If I had as much
brains & time as I had
heart for our cause, I
should be worth something
to it.
   [I am] heartily yours,
           Abby W. May

Friday edf.-






Love heartily yours,
Abby W. A[?]ay
