These five images come from an open-air meeting held at Laurencekirk mart in April 1908. In this month, a series of open-air meetings were held in Kincardineshire and Aberdeen, from Auchenblae to Aberdeen Fish Market. They were addressed by Miss Mary Gawthorpe, a formidable speaker, and Miss Helen Fraser. The theme of these meetings was that women should not waste time in asking politely for the vote, but should instead demand it as a right.
