Mary Walford Henry
Description
Mary Walford Henry, who worked for six years as a musical director and performer in the Walford Bodie Show under the name "Mystic Marie". Known as The Real Trilby, in reference to George du Maurier's 1895 scandalous hypnosis based novel, or The Human Marconigraph, Marie's specialism was mental telepathy and by all accounts she was a hugely popular performer. She sadly died aged 21 from tuberculosis in 1906. This photograph comes from a family photograph album, originally owned by Annie "Nan" Henry, held by Aberdeen City Libraries.
