The 1827 Cafe celebrated the 140th anniversary of Susan B. Anthony and 14 others illegally voting to demonstrate Women's Voting Rights.

In light of the Women's Rights Movement being born over tea, the cafe offered a free cup Monday to all customers.

Even an Anthony impersonator stopped by to speak and answer questions. She also and had an important message for voters.

"Everyone has to vote to participate, that is what is vital. Because if you do not, than it's hard to complain and it's impossible to make headway," said Barbara Blaisdell.

Exercise your right to vote this Tuesday beginning at 6 a.m.
