Carry Nation's Hatchet

After she began using the hatchet as her tool of choice, Carry began selling pins and other such miniature hatchets as a way of raising funds for her cause and expenses such as railroad fares and hotel bills. At many of her speeches, she would advise “Oh, I tell you, ladies, you never know what joy it gives you to start out to smash a rumshop.” And if women could not secure their own hatchet? “… [P]okers will do as well.”
