BYBER, Jeannette Ford (Mrs. C. C. Ryder), Revillagigedo 80, Altos, Havana, Cuba. Humanitarian; b. Wisconsin, June 11, 1866; dau.

Since going in 1899 to Cuba, where her husband established in medical practice, she has been con- stantly active in humanitarian work. Founded and is pres. of the Bando de Piedad de la Isla de Cuba (Band of Mercy of the Island of Cuba), for the protection of children, helpless adults and animals, and has built it up until it is one of the most effective humane societies in exist- ence. It maintains a refuge for abandoned animals in the City of Havana, a free clinic and dispensary for poor children, and a well- organized system for humane and protective work. She has done most effective service in the suppression of bull-fights and other cruel customs formerly prevalent in Cuba; has found little sympathy with humane work among the Cubans and has had to work against great ob- stacles and opposition. Waged a strong fight against cruelty to children in the Reform School, and in many ways and places finds a large field for humane work in Cuba. -Quaker. Mem. Child Labor Fed.
