Julia Emory of Baltimore, Md., daughter of state senator D. H. Emory, gave up work for the National Women's Trade Union League to work for suffrage in 1917. She was sentenced to 30 days in Occoquan Workhouse for picketing in November 1917, and after her release, became an organizer for the NWP. In August 1918 she was arrested and sentenced to 10 days for Lafayette Square meeting. Jan. 7, 1919, she was sentenced to 10 days, and later in that month to 5 days for watchfire demonstrations. She led the Capitol picket in October and November 1919, and suffered many injuries at the hands of police. Source: Doris Stevens, Jailed for Freedom (New York: Boni and Liveright, 1920), 358.
