this story is about a great person in American History.
* An Example To Follow *

Do you know who I admire? A great American Women in history. You guessed it, Susan brownell Anthony. but you may know her just as Susan B. Anthony. now I'll give you two choices. If you are bored or you just don't like my story, stop reading but let me tell you something if you choose to stop reading you are going to miss all the interesting things about Susan B Anthony that makes me admire her or you can keep reading and learn new things about her, your choice.
OK if you read up to this point I know you chose to keep on reading. But enough talking, let’s get to the point. Oh wait I almost forgot to tell you sometimes in the story I might just call her Susan for short.
First of all do you know why I admire Susan B. Anthony? Well let me tell you. The reason I admire Susan B. Anthony is because she stood up for a good cause, "women's Rights" now that may sound a little silly to you but back in the 1800's, women did not have the same rights as men. It may sound unfair but was true. Susan b. Anthony thought that both men and women should have the same rights. For Example women were not allowed to vote back then which is one of the main reasons Susan B. Anthony stood up for women’s rights. to accomplish this, she traveled all around the world to give speeches and rally’s. she worked not 50 days or 50 weeks or 50 months but 50 years with women’s rights. Along the way she met
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and they became life long friends. Elizabeth also became Susan’s “partner” in women’s right.
Susan B. Anthony worked as a nurse for the civil war. She was also part of the anti-slavery movements. An amazing thing about her is that she learned how to read and write at age three.
Susan died March 13, 1906 with pneumonia and heart failure in her own house but before she died these was her last words “Failure is impossible”. We should always thank Susan B Anthony for all her hard work.
* FACT*
*Susan was very helpful. An example is when she was a teenager she overheard her dad talking about that he was in debt, and that same night Susan snuck out of her house to get a job and when she did, she helped her father pay of all of his debts.
