From June to November 1917, Paul, Burns, and about 168 women, mainly from the National Women’s Party were arrested from their “Silent Sentinels” pickets and imprisoned at the Occoquan Workhouse. In August, six were charged with obstructing traffic, hauled off to a judge and then jailed in the workhouse. Some pickets like Virginia’s Maud Jamison were “knocked down and dragged along the sidewalk.” [Doris Stevens, Jailed For Freedom, 94] They considered themselves to be political prisoners, not criminals.
