Tillie May Forney

His daughter, having inherited many of her distinguished father's tastes and ambitions, became his almost constant companion after leaving Miss Carr's celebrated academy on Old York Road in Pennsylvania.

Her mother, Elizabeth Matilda Reitzel (1820–1897), was an accomplished lady of the old school, and she and her daughter were both social favorites.

She possessed a voice of unusual range and sweetness, and at that period it was her teacher's wish that all her interest should be centered on her musical talent, but it seemed impossible for her to drop her pen.

She grew fonder of her literary duties every year, and was a constant contributor to notable magazines in New York City, Philadelphia, and the West Coast.
