The Suffragette Kitty Marion under arrest in Wales. This arrest took place after 5 Suffragettes, including Kitty heckled Lloyd George at a meeting in Wales and were brutally set upon by vicious crowd. A full report of this incident appears in Votes for Women and notes that all the Suffragettes had handfuls of hair ripped from the roots so violently that blood ran down their faces and one Suffragette was even stabbed in the breast with a knife, although the cut was not serious.
