Frieda Fraser
... that Frieda Fraser injected horses with bacterial toxins to cure humans with scarlet fever?[1] this shows she did it [2] this explains the procedure.- ALT1:... that Drs. Frieda Fraser and Edith Williams wrote letters for 24 years before they were able to acquire a home to live together in 1941? [3] p. 72 "Edith and Frieda corresponded with each other between 1917 and 1924" and p. 2 "The correspondence ended when Edith and Frieda finally established a permanent residence in Toronto together in 1941".

Profound and engaging article (GA), interesting life, on excellent sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I struck the first hook as less interesting in June. Perhaps we'll need to explain "Drs.", or say scientists, or even more precisely what kind, or use {{abbr}}. Yes, I know what it means, but this is Main page crowd reading ;) - Do we need 1941? Almost more dramatic/romantic without it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:19, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: Thanks Template:U, totally appreciate your looking at this. I toyed with scientists, but I am not sure that Edith ever did research. Then, I also didn't know if they applied DVM to graduates who graduated before the designation was approved in Canada in 1946 [4], so I opted just to keep it simple with Drs. I saw nothing that said she ever returned to school, thus...unless she was grandfathered to a DVM, she was just a Dr. We don't need 1941 except that it puts context to the time when very little history of LGBT people existed, so I thought it might add to the appeal. If you want me to change it, it can be changed. SusunW (talk) 20:15, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you for explaining. You could still say what Frieda was - as she is the bold person. Or use Drs.? Or drop it? Whatever, it has my blessing, but next come the DYK critics ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:31, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
