Synopsis

Excerpt from Unjust Laws Which Govern Woman: Probate Confiscation

Why do I write this book? Why do I not do a purely womanly deed, and suffer in silence? Why do I refuse to turn the other cheek when one is smitten to a red-hot flame with injustice and inhuman oppression? Why? My answer is, If I did not speak, the very stones would cry out against such a state of things as is still tolerated in this confiscation prize-tribunal, misnamed a court of justice; tolerated in the white light of the nineteenth century; tolerated with the spread-eagle glorification about the justness of the laws. I cry out because I am hurt, wronged, outraged, insulted.

I've had wrongs To stir a fever in the blood of age, Or make the infant's sinews strong as steel.
