June 17, 1904,
Dear Mrs. Gannett
I have just received
your good news letter – It is splendid
that the man contributed the $2000 and made
a "Helen Barrett Montgomery" scholarship. I hope
they won't call it a "Mrs W. A. Montgomery" scholarship–
Keen is my hope & wish for that one! - Now
I wish there were 25 other men who would
give $2000 - and make 25 scholarships - that
is, raise the original sum of $100,000 - it would
be most magnificent - wouldn't it? Why
won't the stars come forth - & make us free !!–
The Council & Congress have gone off
splendidly - This eve'g we have the [?]
with Mrs Fawcett, Mrs Chapman Catt & Miss Shaw -
and me - - I will tell you of it tomorrow
after it is over - if I can get a pen to write with–
