Sarah Elizabeth Forbush Downs (1843-1926) was an American dime novelist". She wrote novels under her own name, as "Mrs. Georgie Sheldon" and "Mrs. George Sheldon Downs". Downs was born on June 5, 1843, in Wrentham, Massachusetts. Her parents were Edwin A. Forbush and Malvina F. (Ware) Forbush. She was educated at the Ladies' Collegiate Institute in Worcester, Massachusetts. In 1868, she married George Sheldon Downs. She wrote under a pseudonym based on his name. In 1869, she began her career by contributing to newspapers. Theodore Dreiser signed her to write for Smith's Magazine. Dreiser regarded her as one of the "three most popular authors in the world." Lost-A Pearl, also known as A Lost Pearle, was one of Mrs. Georgie Sheldon's early publications, appearing in 1883. This story revolves around a young lady named Margaret Pearle Radcliffe, who is engaged to Captain Richard Byrnholm. However, she abandons her joyful marriage owing to the unscrupulous ways of Adison Cheatham, her fiancé's adversary, who has incriminating information that will tarnish the name of Byrnholm if Pearle does not marry Cheatham. The tale follows Pearle as she quickly distances herself from Cheatham and attempts to avoid her new husband's menacing gaze, never forgetting the guy she once loved.
