I started an entry for her in Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ida_Craft Here is an article on her, but not this event: COL. IDA CRAFT GETS A PRIZE FOR COOKIES; Suffrage Hiker Only One of Many Good Cooks at Armory Fete. March 27, 1914, Friday Rosa Bennett was the heroine of the Cosmopolitan Fete of the Woman Suffrage Party at the Seventy-first Regiment Armory yesterday. Rosa was not present in person, for, being a mere hen, she was not invited, but an egg which she laid for the occasion was the feature at the country store, and was for sale for 10 cents, though eggs are now retailing at 40 cents a dozen.

I guess she stayed home and baked cookies as well as fighting for women's rights.

The Bain/LOC photo shows Ida Craft as a leader and participant in the Women's Suffrage march from New York City to Washington, D.C., where they staged a rally on March 3, 1913, the day before the Inauguration of U. S. President Woodrow Wilson -- thus usurping a measure of the publicity that surrounded the historic event. Another Bain/LOC photo of Ms Craft at the 1913 March on Washington: Another shot of the hikers in Newark, N. J.:

That looks to me like Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughter Sylvia.

J L 57 I agree!

www.elizabethfreeman.org/ Elisabeth Freeman (1876-1942), English-born American suffragist, also active in the anti-lynching and free speech movements.

She is such an inspirational person to us all.
