Mary V. Wheelhouse (1870?-1947?) A painter and illustrator, she was born in Yorkshire and studied at Scarborough around 1895. She also studied in Paris. At some point she moved to London, living in Chelsea from 1900. She illustrated books by Louisa May Alcott and Elizabeth Gaskell. She was also a committee member of the Artists' Suffrage League, founded in 1907. Various sources give different dates for her birth and death. Ours are informed guesses...................... Juliana Horatia Ewing (née Gatty) (3 August 1841 - 13 May 1885) was an English writer of children's stories. She displayed sympathetic insight into children's lives, admiration for things military, and strong religious faith. Youth and marriage: Known as Julie, she was the second of ten children of the Reverend Alfred Gatty, vicar of Ecclesfield in Yorkshire, and Margaret Gatty, who was herself a children's author. The children were educated mainly by her mother, but Julie was often the driving force behind their various activities: drama, botany etc. Later she was responsible for setting up a village library in Ecclesfield and helped out in the parish with her three sisters. Early stories of hers appeared in Charlotte Yonge's magazine Monthly Packet. On 1 June 1867, she married Major Alexander Ewing (1830-1895) of the army pay department. He was also a keen churchgoer, who shared his wife's interest in literature. Within a week of their marriage, the Ewings left England for Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, where he had received a new posting. They remained there for two years, before returning to England in 1869 and spending eight years in the army town of Aldershot. Although her husband was sent overseas again, to Malta in 1879 and Sri Lanka in 1881, Ewing's poor health would not allow her to accompany him. The Ewings moved to Trull, Somerset, on his return in 1883, and in 1885, to Bath, in the hopes that the change of air would do her good. However, her health continued to deteriorate, and after two operations, she died there on 13 May 1885.She was given a military funeral at Trull three days later. Her sister Horatia Katharine Frances Gatty (1846-1945) published a memorial of Julie's life and works which includes a publication history of her stories. A later selection includes some of Julie's letters and drawings about Canada. A biography by Gillian Avery appeared in 1961. "Child-novels" Roger Lancelyn Green calls her works the "first outstanding child-novels" in English literature. Her works are notable for their sympathetic insight into child life, their admiration for things military, and their reflection of her strong Anglican faith. They include Mrs. Overtheway's Remembrances (1869), A Flat Iron for a Farthing (1872), Six to Sixteen (1875), Jackanapes (1884), Daddy Darwin's Dovecot (1884), and The Story of a Short Life (1885). The latter story inspired Grace Kimmins to start the Guild of the Poor Brave Things to help children with disabilities in London. Grace (and later Ada Vachell took their motto Laetus sorte mea (Happy in my lot) from Ewing's book. Rudyard Kipling claimed to know her novel Jan of the Windmill (1872-3, 1876) almost by heart. He wrote in his autobiography, Something of Myself, "One [book] I have still, a bound copy of Aunt Judy's Magazine of the early 'seventies, in which appeared Mrs. Ewing's Six to Sixteen. I owe more in circuitous ways to that tale than I can tell. I knew it, as I know it still, almost by heart. Here was a history of real people and real things."Her story The Brownies (1865) gave the Baden-Powells the idea and the name for the junior level of the Girl Guides.....

In an "autobiography," Margery describes the many trials and joys of growing up in India and England in the late 1800's. While she becomes an orphan at an early age, her close friend Eleanor proves steady support as she matures from a child to a young lady. She and her adoptive older sister turn to everything with enthusiasm and grace, and learning dressmaking is neither more nor less valued than learning Italian so they can read Dante, or collecting natural history specimens. Work first published in 1873/74, by Juliana Horatia Ewing the prolific author of children's stories. Her tales, which have hardly been excelled in sympathetic insight into child life, still enjoy undiminished popularity. Juliana Horatia Ewing - sometimes also styled Juliana Horatia Gatty Ewing, or just "Mrs. Ewing" - is credited by Roger Lancelyn Green as being the author of the the "first outstanding child-novels" in English literature.

Excerpt from Six to Sixteen: A Story for Girls But this is beside the mark, and I must not allow myself to wander off. I am too apt to be disour sive. When I had to write leading articles for our manuscript periodical, Jack used to laugh at me, and say, If it wasn't for Eleanor's disentangling your sentences, you'd put parenthesis within par enthesis till, when you got yourself into the very inside one, you'd be as puzzled as a pig in a labyrinth, and not know how to get back to where you started from. And I remember Clement who generally disputed a point, if possible - said, How do you know she wouldn't get back, if you let her work out each train of thought in peace? The curt, clean-cut French style may suit some people whose brains won't stretch far without getting tired; but others may have more sympathy with a Semitic cast of mind.
