Lola Carson Trax and Edna Story Latimer led a hike of a dozen suffragists across Western Maryland in 1914. The noteworthy nature of a dozen women walking for two-weeks through hills and towns was a noteworthy occurrence and fed suffragists' goal to keep the fight in the public eye. Along their way, Trax and Latimer spoke to the press and the public and gathered signatures and new members for the Just Government League. Their suffrage hikes have gone down in history.
