But her appearance and her personal habits belied the fight- | ing spirit she displayed. She was slight in stature and at §0 was often described as having preserved much of her girlish beauty. Students of her temperament found nothing masculine in it. She reveled in bright colors and flounces as much as the average woman; she was passionately fond of music and chil- dren. and was said to have “made the best jam in England.” She de- | fended strongly the sanctity of mar- riage But revolutionary bleod was traced back to her grandfather who narrowly escaped being killed in franchise riots. Her father was a radical. As Emmeline Goulden she was horn in Manchester, Eng., on a day which she has described as | “the anniversary of the storming of |the Bastile.” but the year is not ghven. It is believed to have been about 1854. Her education in Paris as a girl brought her under further radical influences, and she became a com- panion of the daughter of Henri | Rochefort, an ‘ardent. republican In 1879 she married Dr. Pank- hurst, who was a member of the first Woman Suffrage society or- ganized in England. She shared her husband’s interest in the advan ment of women. He was a promi. nent member of the English bar and was author of the martied women's property a¢ct which became English law in the early eighties. Left With Four Children Upon her husband’s death in 1889, Mrs. Pankhurst was left with four children, Sylvia,. Christabel, Adela and a son Harry.
