Frail, feminist Mrs. Adelaide Johnson, a sculptor for more than 60 of her 80-odd years, long knew and admired the late great Suffragette Susan B. Anthony.

The result falls into that class...
...Blavatsky from Tibet, the yoga writings of one Pryse ("All I say is Om," said Lawrence), the Bergsonian view that all was flux, the Freudian unconscious, the Jungian libido, many studies of primitive culture were all skimmed by Lawrence for his private religion.
