“The dungeon I was in was very filthy, tobacco spit on the floor and all along the side of the filthy bunk; dirty horse blankets, open dirty toilet, no water, dark and damp. I was so cold my teeth chattered all night. Superintendent Whittaker ran up and down the corridor screaming to the guards to bring the handcuffs, straight jackets and gags.”

Minnie Quay, suffragist arrested for picketing the White House. 1917.
