Woman's Advocate, October 23, 1869   Save
Ohio History Connection Archives & Library
Description: This is the October 23, 1869, issue of the Woman's Advocate, a weekly periodical "devoted to woman: her emancipation from religious, social, political, and moral slavery." Published in Dayton, Ohio, by editors A. J. Boyer and Eliza V. Burns, the Woman's Advocate discussed lectures given by prominent women's rights activists and suffragists like Susan B. Anthony, national politics, the Temperance Movement, and publicized the work of the Ohio Woman Suffrage Association and other organizations. In 1870, the Woman's Journal, a weekly newspaper founded by women's rights activist Lucy Stone, and her husband Henry Browne Blackwell, absorbed the Woman's Advocate, and continued publication until 1931.
