Elizabeth Stanton list a "long history of injuries and usurpations on the part of man toward woman" in her Declaration of Sentiments to:  

1. Echo Jefferson's Declaration of Indepence.

The document, read by Stanton in Seneca Falls Convention in 1848, used the same form as the Declaration of Independece to parallel women struggles to the Founding Fathers'. It outlined the rights american women had to have as citizens.  

3. To achive a powerful rhetorical effect through the use of repetition.  

The use of repetition, as used in the Declaration of Independence, enforces the importance of damage women had to endure all along. It's a persuasion technic.  

4. To support her argument that women have a lesser status than men.  

The list is a valuable support to her argument, not only to raise awareness of disparity of rights between men and women but to back her requests of equallity.
