Pankhurst, weakened after eight days of fasting, was driven to Westminster and sat on the House of Commons steps as police watched.

Roosevelt halts political plans due to illness on voyage
Associated Press reports from Southampton on June 18 that Theodore Roosevelt briefly broke his silence on politics to declare he will not run for New York governor. He felt a chill aboard the tender to embark on the Imperator, attributing it to jungle fever. Roosevelt declined aid, crossed to the liner unaided, and retired to the Imperial suite to rest his voice, planning to speak in Pittsburgh on June 30 if able, preferring home life at Sagamore Hill for recovery. Lawrence Abbott greeted him, suggesting golf, but Roosevelt joked he did not feel like chasing a pill.
