Her laugh was an inspiration, and it was infectious. It did not seem forced; the transition to tears came naturally from a heart "always open to melting charity." That was the great secret of her success. She entered for the time being into the joys and sorrows of the part she was playing, and her whole soul was in it. She married John King in 1869, and divorced him in 1877. She was buried in Waverley Cemetery in Sydney. (en)
