Mabel Tuke, c1908.
Mabel Tuke, joint Honorary Secretary of the WSPU, who was also known as Pansy, c1908. Mabel Tuke had spent most of her married life in South Africa, returing to England as a widow. She worked for Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence's Esperance Girls' Club and helped pioneer the revival of morris dancing. Early in 1906 she joined the WSPU and devoted herself to the campaign wholeheartedly. On 1 March 1912 she and Emmeline Pankhurst threw a stone through the window of No.10 Downing Street. They were arrested immediately, and Mabel was sentenced to three weeks in Holloway Gaol. Years later, Sylvia Pankhurst remembered how Mabel had had the ability to impress and reassure the parents of girls who wanted to be involved in the campaign. © London Museum/Heritage Images
