    Inez Milholland Boissevain: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inez_Milholland She's also in this photo from that day: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/7753232100/

    Sen. James O'Gorman [D-NY, 1911-1917], "" I will not vote for this or any other woman suffrage amendment," said Senator James A. O'Gorman to the big delegation of women representing the Women's Congressional Union which visited him by appointment in his office yesterday afternoon to ask support for the Bristow-Mondell bill to submit an amendment to the Federal Constitution to give women the right to vote." New York Times, May 1, 1915 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9E05E3D9123FE233A... An aside: "O'Gorman was the last U.S. Senator elected by a State Legislature, and from 1914 on they have been elected by general ballot on the state ticket." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Aloysius_O'Gorman

    Thanks to both of you for your research. What a character he must have been. We'll add the date and other information to this photo and the other one from the same day.
  • Ryan (LOC P&P) said:
    My research leads me to think that the woman to the left of Sen. O'Gorman is Mrs. William L. Colt, and the woman on is right is Mrs. Boissevain. The Bain captioners must have switched them. They got the names correct is this image: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/7753232100/ We'll make the correction to the record the next time we update.

    That makes sense to me. The woman with the veil doesn't look like any other images of Inez Milholland, anyway.

E.I. Edwards (LOC)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_I._Edwards "Edward Irving Edwards (December 1, 1863 – January 26, 1931) was an American Democratic Party politician who served as the 37th Governor of New Jersey from 1920 to 1923 and in the United States Senate from 1923 to 1929." So this is likely when he became Governor of New Jersey.
