Zack

(d.1910). She was the author of five volumes of fiction from 1898, including The Roman Road (1903), a collection of three stories, in the first of which an heiress chooses a waster rather than his more virtuous brother, Tales of Dunstable Weir (1901), and The White Cottage (1901), a Hardyesque Devon tragedy about Luce Myrtle's choice between respectable Mark and the village n'er-do-well, Ben Lupin, with whom she eventually runs away. Conrad noticed that her On Trial (1899) and his Lord Jim shared a preoccupation with cowardice. Keats, who also wrote plays, did not publish anything under her own name.
