With her connection with the latter, Shipton became friends with fellow authors Charlotte Yonge and Christabel R. Coleridge (with whom she co-authored a novel). Relatively late in life, in 1902, she married schoolmaster Arthur Edward Patrick Voules. Together, the couple operated Birdhurst Lodge school in Croyden. In the twentieth century, Shipton authored a handful of plays. She died in 1945 in Croyden. Size 105mm x 25mm Condition is very good. Mounted on card. More images can be taken upon request.
