From The Indianapolis Times, Tuesday, November 30, 1915: Mrs. May Wright Sewall of Indianapolis, who was prominent at the woman’s peace conference in San Francisco, is booked to sail on the “Peace Ship” next Saturday at the invitation of Henry Ford. Indiana Governor Samuel Ralston was also invited to be a member of the “Peace Ship crew,” but while highly commending the motives of the invitation declined because his official duties prevented him from being a part of the Ford party. The S. S. Oscar II, chartered by Mr. Ford, will carry a delegation of pacifists to Europe where it will proceed to some neutral country where a peace conference will be held. The hope is to end the war so that the men in the trenches will be home by Christmas.
