An incredibly rare 1907 Suffragette Poem by a convicted Suffragette Militant.

Alice Noble is on the Suffragette 'Roll of Honour' list honouring those imprisoned for their beliefs.

The Poem reads -

'We stormed the House of Commons with our little band so true,

We frightened all the Statesmen till they trembled through and through.

They clapped us into Prison and we gladly went for you

And the Cause goes marching on.'

Signed Ex Convict 19 Alice Noble - 26/2/07.

A Historical Suffragette Document and an inspirational piece.

Alice Noble was born in 1889. Her Father was a brick maker and She grew up in Leeds, Yorkshire. Her profession was listed as  'servant' when, aged 17, She was arrested and imprisoned at Holloway Women's Prison in 1906.

This proudly signed piece was laid down in 1907, within a year of her imprisonment.
