The New York Sun spoke of Susan's "ungainly form rigged out in the bloomer costume and provoking the thoughtless to laughter and ridicule by her very motions on the platform."

Having explained that I wanted to see the original of the telegram "because," as I said, "I think a mistake has been made in transcribing it," I was presently confronted by the postmaster, a most courteous, obliging person. "Why, certainly," he said, when I had repeated my untruth.
Miguel Jose protested his innocence. "No he robado, no he matado ningune, muero innocente." Francisco Migul prayed devoutly, but inaudibly. His soul seemed to have quitted the body before he was executed. Breti Gullimillit called on all to witness his innocence; it was of no use for him to say an untruth, for he was going before the face of God.
