“ Had we never met sae kindly, Had we never loved sae blindly, Never met and never parted,
We had ne’er been broken-hearted 💔


Ellen Buckingham Mathews (1853 - 1920) was a popular female English novelist during the late 19th and early 20th century. She was also known as Mrs Reeves after her marriage to Dr. Henry Reeves but was best known under her pen name, Helen Mathers.

She was born in Misterton, Somerset. Her first novel, "Comin' thro' the Rye" was published in 1875. It was partly based on people in her life and on her own early romantic experiences. She also acknowledged Rhoda Broughton as an early influence. She continued to write until her death. Her last novel was published posthumously.
