of aliases ('Mary Humphreys', 'Edith Johnston', 'Margaret Morrison'), and carried out various acts of militancy both north and south of the border. They included smashing two windows in London, with Enid Rennie from Broughty Ferry (eventually sentenced to two months) and Florence McFarlane, a nurse who lived in the Nethergate, Dundee (sentenced to four months), and Moorhead's target was a Thomas Cook Fleet Street shop (but in the subsequent trial, despite arresting her, their witnesses got confused). On arrest she is reported as saying 'I am a householder without a vote. I came from Scotland at great personal inconvenience to myself to help my comrades.'

That sword was a mere symbol just as the stones and hammers with which women are fighting for their freedom and which they shall win."

Moorhead responded that officials 'should not be encouraged to try to coerce prisoners into submission to Rules which only apply to Criminals.' The women's suffrage supporters had long considered they should be treated as political prisoners. In October 1912 after being
