Notes from the North

Announcement of the death of Mrs Tunny

"There are many, both at home and abroad, who will hear with deep regret of the death of Mrs Tunny of Edinburgh, which occurred on the 25th inst.  

She was a 'helpmeet' to Mr Tunny in the true sense of the term, an enthusiastic love of the art, and on of the most artistic photographers that ever laid paper on a negative..

Mrs Tunny possessed a refined and cultivated taste, and a thorough knowledge of the requirements of photography - a lasting memorial of which may be seen in the recently erected establishment in Maitland Street, which is one of the most elegant and perfect in the country, and which we hope we are committing no breach of confidence in saying was principally the work of the deceased lady.

Mrs Tunny, while ever diligent in business, displayed at all times an open-handed friendship, and gave a hearty welcome to all connected with the art.  She never seemed so happy as when exercising a genuine hospitality to the numerous strangers who came 'within her gates'."
