Susan B,Anthony-blown away by Mary Surratt's hanging

[Gene C]

You can just imagine what she might have written about this weeks election.

Dear Diary, Last night me and Lizzie (her ax) went out on the town to protest, where we found a group of young people already hard at it. When I smelled liquor on their breath, I broke out into a fiery speech about prohibition. They answered with rousing cheers, until they realized I wasn't pro alcohol sales, just the opposite. When they saw that fiery look in my eyes (I had run out of visine) and Lizzie, they quickly dispersed. The local law enforcement came over to thank me for my civic mindedness, but suggested next time I should leave Lizzie at home. I told them I had just as much right to carry an ax around with me as any man, like that Paul Bunion fellow. What's this world coming to?
