    General Johnston's eldest daughter, Henrietta Preston Johnston, has devoted a great part of her life and fortune to benevolent purposes and the education of the young. She inherited from her mother a talent for prose and poetic composition of a high order, but with a critical self depreciation that has prevented her from seeking literary reputation.

    Later in life she has taken up miniature painting on china with the most satisfactory results.
