That passage from Elizabeth Cady Stanton's autobiography impacted the passage by,
- calming the tension that was caused due to the first convention.
This phrase was culled from the autobiography, "80 Years and More: Reminiscences, 1815-1897," by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, a pioneer feminist and women's leader in the United States of America.
She mentioned the first time when the Women's Rights Convention was held and how it attracted a lot of attention and backlashes from the press thus making her feel startled and afraid.
However, another convention was organized in Rochester. The reader at this point will be anticipating another backlash, but this was doused when she said that "the first one seemed to have drawn all the fire".
This means that the first one attracted all the attacks leaving little for the second. Thus, the rising tension was quenched.
