Carry Nation. Any intemperate temperance agitator. Carry Nation (1846–1911), convinced that she was divinely appointed to bring about the downfall of the saloon, embarked upon her career in Kansas in 1899, chopping her way through the United States and Europe with her “hatchetings” or “hatchetations.” Her temperance lectures were not as interesting as her spectac- ular destruction of saloon interiors with her trusty ax, but the title of her autobiography, The Use and Need of the Life of Carry A. Nation (1904), is a classic. The much ridiculed schoolteacher seemed to believe that she was made for martyrdom; she even enjoyed her frequent stays in jail.
