I shall be there without fail this time. I am so hugely looking forward to [Page 2] being with you and her again, but oh! I do wish I could feel some control of my speechifying instead of letting it [illegible] on the top of me and grip me with terror-making claws. It is specially difficult to feel strong in the matter [Page 3] when one lives mostly in an atmosphere of opponents. I can’t help complaining to you because you are so sympathising but I don’t really mean to grumble and I know I shall feel alright when I am with you again. [Page 4] Yours always after, Connie Lytton. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Letter from Constance Lytton to Annie Kenney, 1909 Subject The topic of the resource Political activists Political participation Description An account of the resource [Transcript of letter is available below] Dated 24 May 1909, this is a letter from Lady Constance Lytton (1869-1923) to Annie Kenney. In it she confirms an upcoming meeting with Annie and Mrs Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence (one of WSPU's leaders together with her husband Frederick Pethick-Lawrence, Emmeline Pankhurst and Christabel Pankhurst) and shares her anxiety about public speaking in an atmosphere charged with disagreement. Constance Lytton was a prominent suffragette, women's rights activist, and campaigner for prison reform. She was imprisoned on a number of occasions, but felt she was not given the same treatment as other suffragette inmates due to her aristocratic background. To test her theory, she gave a fake name - Jane Warton - after being taken to Walton Gaol, Liverpool. As Jane Warton, she adopted the hunger strike and was force-fed - an experience which disturbed her health for the rest of her life. She documented the experience in her 1914 memoir Prisons and Prisoners.
