Biography

She lived in Devonshire and London and she and Elizabeth MacArthur know each other since school. She is very pretty and came to Australia on a prison ship because of pocket-picking. She is married to Timothy Gerald but she had to use the forged letters of a clandestine lover that he finally married her. It is not the big love but it could have been worse. She is not rich and can't be called honorable except for her marriage. She wants to procure Laurence to one of the girls in Sydney but Laurence refuses. She is an agreable neighbour at table when she takes part in the dinner of Elizabeth MacArthur. She talks much without caution or tact. She is impressed by people who have visited many countries and she perceives Australia and the rest of the world as a great adventure.
