Mabel Henrietta Capper (23 June 1888 – 1 September 1966) was a British Suffragette. She gave all her time between 1907 and 1913 to the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) as a 'soldier' in the struggle for women's Suffrage. She was imprisoned six times, went on hunger strike and was one of the first Suffragettes to be forcibly fed.〔The Women's Suffrage Movement, Elizabeth Crawford, Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, London & New York, 1999, P95, ISBN 0-415-23926-5〕 Much of her life was devoted to the struggle against bad luck and discrimination. == Family == She was born in Brook's Bar, Chorlton on Medlock, Manchester.
