Ten days after her fateful intervention at the Epsom Derby, a funeral service was held in London for the suffragette Emily Wilding Davison. The short clip above shows part of the procession, organised by the Women's Social and Political Union, which was attended by tens of thousands. She was buried on June 15th in Morpeth, Northumberland.
In our June issue, Martin Pugh reconsidered Davison's motivations and asked whether in fact her dramatic death hindered rather than aided the wider suffragette movement.
