November 11, 1885

Lizzie Dorman Fyler, a suffragette lawyer from Massachusetts who made her home in Eureka Springs (Carroll County), died. She had led in the organization of the Arkansas Woman Suffrage Association, which was created “for the purpose of securing such legislation as shall secure to woman all the rights and privileges which belong to citizens of a free republic.” The association that she had helped found disbanded only about a month before her death.
