The First Essay on the Political Rights of Women
id="Footnote_1_1"/>[1] The Parliamentary Franchise was conferred on the women of New Zealand in 1893, the same year in which the above was printed. In 1907 the Hon. R. Oliver, late member of the Legislative Council, writes: “The interest now taken by women in New Zealand in the politics of the country is remarkable, and is regarded as a decided gain to the community.”
[2] Before the suppression of “jurandes,” in 1776, women could neither carry on a business of a “marchande des modes” (milliner and dressmaker) nor of any other profession exercised by them, unless they were married, or unless some man lent or sold them his name for that purpose.—See preamble of the Edict of 1776.
