9 E. S. Pankhurst, TSM, p. 150, where Sylvia states that her father dictated the words on
Monday [4 July 1898], the telegram being sent by someone else. C. Pankhurst,
Unshackled, p. 35, offers another version – ‘ “Father ill. Come” said the telegram’, which
implies that Sylvia sent it although Christabel does not explicitly say so. See Manchester
Evening NewsTuesday, 5 July 1898, ‘Death of Dr. Pankhurst’ which notes that Dr.
Pankhurst was well on the Saturday but that on the Monday ‘his condition was regarded
as hopeless’.
