HOW TO SOLVE IT
This board game was actually published in an edition of “The Suffragette” weekly newspaper. It was meant to draw attention to the imprisonment and suffering of women in the movement. In this version, many spaces are marked with letters or numbers. The proper order of some of these spells out a message, one of the locations needed to deliver the propaganda of the WSPU. To solve the message, find the series of dice on another of the puzzles. You must remember to also follow the rules of the game as you move around the board. Move your Suffragette out of Holloway Prison in the order of these dice “rolls”.

Hint 3

How to solve it
This is a fence rail cipher. The text is arranged from the topmost left down and back up according to how many “rails” are in the “fence”. The text is written across the rails In this image from a London train station, there are four rails. Additionally, you will see on the back that the letter W has a P I R over the top of it, with a line that points to the “s” in a word below. This is a hint that the letters form a W pattern. The original puzzle is encrypted along the four rails, but that doesn’t help you unless you know that you start 3 across, like the W. Consequently the first three letters that you see in the puzzle go across the top bar. You then fill out the next “rail” with the next five letters in your sequence. You continue to put the letters one over and one down until you reach the fourth rail and then you begin back up. When you have the W shape completed over the four rails, you will rewrite the letters as they now read in the W shape

How to solve it
The song, The March of the Women was an anthem for the Suffragettes. The notes in this arrangement do not actually form music. Indeed, the notes represent letters of the alphabet. The key to this cipher is the last two lines of “music” One line begins on the lowest line of the musical staff, letter A and proceeds through the alphabet to the letter Z. It proceeds with change in pitch notation to letter B, C and so on. The quarter rests are spacers in-between words. The last line shows you the same key, but going from Z to A. Once you have the key, translate the “notes” on the first two lines into the corresponding letters.
