'The writings and life of this Colonial Australian journalist and author, steeped in Victorian religious sentiment, have been all but forgotten. She has no living descendant and even her grave does not bear her name. Her stories, magazine articles, and a few scattered references in the literature are all that remain, and they too have been largely forgotten. Her other abiding legacy as an early campaigner for animal rights is unrecognised. This brief biographical sketch aims to fill the gaps in our current knowledge of her life and works.' (3)
