Age and dates don't match up

edit

This article states McDowell "at the age of 15 was paid for her poem on the death of Queen Victoria". However Queen Victoria died in 1901 and the article says McDowell was born in 1880. These don't match up unless she wrote and sold her poem about the death of Queen Vic several years before the actual event. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.25.20.82 (talk) 15:28, 19 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
