[Footnote 51: Page 29.--She is the author of three books. "A Social
Departure" and "An American Girl in London" have had many readers and
are full of promise. Miss Duncan, in company with another young lady,
in 1889-90, went around the world, and made numerous contributions to
the press of Canada during that tour, but its noteworthy result is the
first mentioned volume. She is now married and a resident of India,
whose striking aspects of social life she is studying and portraying
in print. Her latest story, or rather sketch, of Indian customs, "The
Simple Adventures of a Memsahib" (New York, 1893), has many touches of
quiet humour. One must regret that her talent has not been directed to
the incidents of Canadian life.]
