Miss Sylvia Pankhurst being re arrested after recovering from her hunger strike
Miss Sylvia Pankhurst being re arrested after recovering from her hunger strike experiences in early 1913.. Miss Pankhurst was arrested under the Prisoners (Temporary Discharge for Ill-Health) Act 1913. It was known as the Cat and Mouse Act.
The Act allowed the Home Secretary to free the suffragettes when they had starved themselves almost to the point of permanent harm and required them to report back to prison.
Miss Pankhurst was released eight times but never returned to Holloway when she was meant to. Scotland Yard Special Branch detectives had to re-arrest her each time.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the indomitable spirit of Miss Sylvia Pankhurst, a prominent suffragette and women's rights activist in early 1913. Having recently recovered from a hunger strike, Miss Pankhurst finds herself being re-arrested under the notorious Prisoners (Temporary Discharge for Ill-Health) Act 1913, commonly known as the Cat and Mouse Act. Under this oppressive legislation, suffragettes who had pushed their bodies to the brink through starvation were temporarily released by the Home Secretary but required to report back to prison once they regained their health. However, Miss Pankhurst defied these unjust laws by evading her return to Holloway Prison on eight separate occasions. The Scotland Yard Special Branch detectives tasked with apprehending her faced an ongoing game of cat and mouse as they repeatedly sought to bring her back into custody. This image stands as a testament to Miss Pankhurst's unwavering determination in fighting for gender equality and human rights during this tumultuous period. Set against the backdrop of social unrest in early 20th century Britain, this black-and-white photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by courageous individuals like Miss Sylvia Pankhurst in their relentless pursuit of justice. It symbolizes both the resilience of those involved in demonstrations for women's suffrage and sheds light on an important chapter in our collective history.
