Are there any historical accounts of Aisha (the wife of Muhammad) giving public speeches?

Much of what I'm reading comes from Short Biography of Aisha Int Bakr Al-Siddiq
Battle of Camel, sometimes referred to as the battle of Jamal, November 7, 656, found A'isha (Mohommed's widow at this point) leading 3000 troops against Ali in the first Fitna (Moslem Civil war ), and talking peace terms with Ali before the battle and addressing the 3000 opposing Ali.
During his lifetime, Mohommed established her authority by telling Muslims to consult her in his absence;
Mustadrak of Hakim, vol.4, p.11.
Men and women came from far and wide to benefit from her knowledge.
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith, by Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari Hadith 4.643. Musa Ibn Talha (r.a.) says,
"I did not see anyone more eloquent than Aisha"
After Mohommed's death, she went on to be become one of the most prolific and distinguished scholars of her time.
A Muslim scholar, she is credited with narrating more than two thousand hadith. She had a great love of learning and became noted for her intelligence, learning and sharp sense of judgement.Aishah (r.a ) memorized quite a number of Surahs of the Qur’an. Her father was a man of learning and she inherited his love of knowledge.
There is a lot of writing about Aisha as a child bride. I would just add that King John of England married 9-12 year old Isabella of Angoulême in 1200 so young brides happened in antiquity.
