"General Johnston's eldest daughter, Henrietta Preston Johnston, has devoted a great part of her life and fortune to benevolent purposes and the education of the young. She inherited from her mother a talent for prose and poetic composition of a high order, but with a critical self depreciation that has prevented her from seeking literary reputation.
Later in life she has taken up miniature painting on china with the most satisfactory results."
From William Preston Johnston, Johnstons of Salisbury (1897)
