Remembered as "a man of brilliant talent and singular charm," Edward Wilkins' career included the roles of editorial writer, musical and dramatic critic, and playwright.
"Anna Maria," frequently written about by "Personne" in the "Dramatic Fueilleton" writes a letter to Mr. Editor defending herself and her family. She also discusses Adelina Patti, her life in the country, a Hallowe'en incantation she was the subject of, and Robbie Burns's poem "Hallowe'en."
