Mrs. Bray, best known as a novelist, was the daughter of 
John Kempe, bullion porter in the Mint. In February 1818 
she married Charles Alfred Stothard, the artist. He died in 
1821, and a year or two later she married the Bev. Edward 
Atkyns Bray, Vicar of Tavistock. She was a prolific writer, 
but only the one book undernoted relates to natural history. 
The Bev. Thos. Johnes, Bector of Bradstone, supplied her

etc., and she included his letters in the work. Some “ re- 
mainder ” copies were reissued by Bohn in 1838 with new 
title-pages, and a new edition, compressed by Mrs. Bray
