Aguilar, Grace
AGUILAR, GRACE (1816-1847), English writer, the daughter of
a Jewish merchant in London, was born in June 1816. Her works consist
chiefly of religious fiction, such as The Vale of Cedars (1850) and Home
Influence (1847). She also wrote, in defence of her faith and its
professors, The Spirit of Judaism (1842) and other works. Her services
were acknowledged gratefully by the “women of Israel” in a testimonial
which they presented shortly before her death, which took place at
Frankfort-on-the-Main on the 16th of September 1847. |
