Which rhetorical appeal or device does Susan B. Anthony use in the opening of her speech?

Ethos, because she creates trust by calling her audience her friends and fellow citizens to show she's just like them
Irony, because she is saying something that is the opposite of what she means about women's right to vote
Logos, because she presents facts and statistics about women's right to vote
Rhetorical question, because she wants the reader to think about an issue through a question
