Biography
Mrs. J. Irving Gross was a member of the National Woman's Party and one of the "Silent Sentinels" imprisoned during the 1917-1919 campaign to picket the Wilson White House for woman suffrage. Doris Stevens recorded her term as: August 1918: 15 days; February 1919: eight days in Charles Street Jail.
Stevens records a fifteen-day Lafayette Square sentence in August 1918 and an eight-day Boston sentence in February 1919. Adding these imposed terms does not establish twenty-three days actually served. The stored nominal-as-actual day override is removed; no unsupported admission or release endpoint is substituted.
