310 This booklet also included the speeches of Susan B. Anthony and Matilda Joslyn Gage, delivered prior to the trial, and a short appraisal of the trial, Judge Hunt and the Right of Trial by Jury, by John Hooker, the husband of Isabella Beecher Hooker. The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle called the booklet “the most important contribution yet made to the discussion of woman suffrage from a legal standpoint.” The Woman’s Suffrage Journal, IV, Aug. 1, 1873, p. 121, published in England by Lydia Becker, said: “The American law which makes it a criminal offense for a person to vote who is not legally qualified appears harsh to our ideas.”
