Metropolitan Boroughs election sketches: Woman's Rights, 1874. Voting in London. 'Mr. Boord's commercial pursuits as a distiller exposed him to the reproach of profiting by the vice of drunkenness..."Gin and Misery," indeed, was a cry that had too much sad truth in it; and if that was the theme of the poor woman's oratory who is shown by our sketch in the act of exerting her right of free speech, it is very likely that she knew but too well what she was talking about'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
