    Biography

    Wallace was born in London in 1854; she was the grandniece of Leigh Hunt.

    Wallace worked as a lay healer, claiming that spiritual faith and purity were the best means of healing disease. She was trained by her future husband Joseph Wallace, who she met at a phrenological meeting held by James Burns. They married in 1878; the couple had seven children. Wallace set up her own practice in London which employed a number of assistants; patients were treated with a combination of "dietary control, hydropathy, physical manipulation and mesmerism".

    In 1877, Wallace carried out a national lecture tour, where she spoke at multiple spiritualist societies. She completed a novel in 1879, Visibility Invisible and Invisibility Visible, which was serialised by James Burns. In 1890 Wallace took over the ownership of T. L. Nichols' journal Herald of Health; she later become its editor.

    Wallace died on 16 March 1927 in Missenden, Buckinghamshire.
