MUNRO, H.H. ("Saki," 1870-1916). Autograph letter signed, "H.H. Munro," to Mrs Owen Powell, Birkenhead, 31 December 1913.

Two pages, 166 x 125mm, bifolium.

Munro expresses anti-suffrage sentiments. In part, "On the suffrage question you must count me as your friend the enemy, though I can sympathise with capable politicians of your sex who want to have a vote. Unfortunately the horde of the incapable would have to get it too, and the male incapable voter is quite enough of a nuisance and a danger as it is." [Together with:] an unrelated later autograph note signed by Ethel Munro, the author's sister.
