How did Mormons react to Susan B Anthony's letter?

Susan B. Anthony wrote possibly hundreds of letters in her lifetime, so I would need more information about which letter you are referring to. Women in predominantly Mormon Utah already had the right to vote and always had, so although they likely supported the suffragette position, they were not very involved in the process. Susan B. Anthony was aware of the women's voting rights in Utah and was acquainted with several prominent Mormon women in Utah. Susan B. Anthony did write a letter that was published in the Salt Lake Tribune, asking the women of Utah to not vote for prominent Mormon polygamist B.H. Roberts to the US House of Representatives in 1898. However, after B.H. Roberts was elected and denied a seat in the House, (an act which most suffragettes supported) she went on record saying that it was unconstitutional to kick him out of his elected position and wrote him a personal letter of support.


What did Susan B Anthony were when she was alive?

Susan Brownell Anthony was born February 15,1820 in Adams Massachusetts to Daniel and Lucy Anthony. Susan was the second born of eight children in a strict Quaker family. Her father, Daniel Anthony, was a stern man, a Quaker Abolitionist and a cotton manufacturer. He believed in guiding his children, not directing them. He did not allow them to experience the childish amusements of toys,games,and music,which were seen as distractions from the inner light. Instead he enforced self-discipline, principled convictions, and belief in one's own self-worth.Susan was a precocious child and she learned to read and write at the age of three. In 1826, the Anthonys moved from Massachusetts to Battensville,N.Y. where Susan attended a district school. When the teacher refused to teach Susan long division, Susan was taken out of school and taught in a "home school" set up by her father. The school was run by a woman teacher, Mary Perkins. Perkins offered a new image of womanhood to Susan and her sisters.She was independent and educated and held a position that had traditionally been reserved to young men. Ultimately, Susan was sent to boarding school near Philadelphia. Susan taught at a female academy, Eunice Kenyon's Quaker boarding school, in upstate New York from 1846-49. After, she settled in her family home in Rochester, New York. It was here that she began her first public crusade on behalf of temperance.
