  Before the Suffragette Caravan left New York for Boston, pulled by a balky horse the ladies had named "Asquith," the participants released several Boston homing pigeons, whose flight home was supposed to precede their own arrival in that city. Here is a contemporary newspaper clipping about the event: www.elizabethfreeman.org/PDF/suffrage/bostonPigeons_big.pdf
