The following paragraph is from a rough draft of a student's report. Leaders of the convention drafted a Declaration of Sentiments that was
read to the assembly. This declaration stated, in part, that "woman is
man's equal—was intended to be so by the Creator..." and "that it is the
duty of the women of this country to secure to themselves their sacred
right to the elective franchise." The declaration was signed by both male
and female participants at the convention and later published in
newspapers across the country.
