She was a brilliant star in the aristocratic firmament, and to lend her rays to any sphere less elevated was a crime too great to be condoned. But her ostracism from the self-selected few has been the gain of the many – loyal souls, who reward with generous gratitude any acts performed for their instruction or amusement. As a Musician of great natural gift, as a Composer, as a Lecturer, as an Author, as a Teacher, as a Philanthropist, as a Reformer, and as a Woman of unspotted fame, Mrs Weldon stands conspicuous before the world, as not only one woman, but a host in herself. Mrs Weldon is a presage of the better time, when those of good natural endowments, position, and education will step out from the charmed circle of exclusiveness and selfishness, and use their glorious powers for their country and the good of humanity. The evils of the world will be healed, and the sufferings of the nation alleviated … Like all great souls, she knows not yet the grandeur of her Mission. Let her name be WELL-DONE – a name not inherited nor conferred, but deserved!
