'After the declaration at the polls, my companion, Mrs Martel, and I started to walk to our lodgings...Suddenly we were confronted by a crowd of young men and boys... these young men who wore the red rosettes of the liberal party, had just heard of their candidates defeat... one of them pointed to us crying "They did it. Those women did it!" A yell went up from the crowd and we were deluges with a shower of clay and rotten eggs' p.94

'we rushed into a little grocer's shop... the grocer's wife closed and bolted the door, but the poor grocer cried out that his place would be wrecked... they led us out the [back] door... we found that the rowdies anticipating our move had surged round the corner and were waiting for us'
