THE LATE LADY FLORENCE DIXIE

 

 A Singular Career

THE late Lady Florence Dixi
was not only a sister of th
eighth Marquis of Queensberry,
but possessed a remarkably
striking and attractive person—
:ility. :’\t the age of e' hteen
she married Sir Alexander

 

Beaumont Dixie, and to her great satisfaction both the sons of the
marriage entered the Navy. She was from childhood eager to
express herself in word and in deed; her energy led her to take long
journeys in remote parts of the world, such as Patagonia (which she
rode over with her brother, Lord James Douglas), Arabia and the
Rocky Mountains; whilst her voice and pen were ever ready to
champion the woman’s rights movement, the absolute equality of the
sexes, the right of the eldest born to succeed to titles and estates
independent of sex, the cause of Home Rule (though she was bitterly
opposed to the methods of agrarian agitation pursued in Ireland),
and in later years the abolition of all sports which involved suffering
to animals. She believed in rational dress to such an extent that
she took long cross-country rides on a man’s saddle, and in many
other ways she practised what she preached. That such a woman
should at one time or another have been a special correspondent was,
of course, inevitable, and during the Boer \Var of 1880-1 she wrote
from the front much interesting matter for the Alarming Post. All
through her life
her attractive per—
sonality made for
her many friends,
and she was
k e e n l y moved
by any story of
suffering or 0p-
pression. There—
storation 0f the
Zulu chief Cote—
wayo to his native
land was largely
her work. Curi-
ously enough a
new novel by
Lady Florence is
announced con—
temporane o u s l y
with her death,
which took place
at her husband's
pl:1ce.(}len Stuart,
x\nn:in, N.B., at
the age of .8.
