Letter from Mary Elizabeth Lease to Walter Roscoe Stubbs
Mary Elizabeth Lease was a former member of the Kansas State Board of Charities and Corrections but was removed from her position by Governor Lorenzo Dow Lewelling. Lease sued over her removal and the Kansas Supreme Court ruled in her favor. However, Lease’s expenses were never paid by the state and she requests that Governor Stubbs forward the expense list to the proper state committee for payment.
