Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) Progress, January 3, 1872, p. 3. A petition to Congress against the proposed law granting the right of suffrage to women, is being circulated in Bloomington and vicinity. The petition has received the signatures, we are informed, of all ladies to whom it has been presented and will reflect the sentiments of the better half of creation in this locality. Mrs. Martha J. Wilison (consider Wilson a spelling variant) has the matter in charge, and ladies who may desire to append their signatures to the petition will find it at Mrs. W.'s store on South College Avenue.
