About the author

Thomas Street Millington (1821–1906) was an English clergyman and author. Sources consulted describe him as London-born, educated at Tunbridge School and St John’s College, Cambridge, and later ordained in the Church of England.

He served in clerical posts including Lezayre on the Isle of Man, Northampton, and later Woodhouse Eaves. Alongside religious writing, he published fiction and books for younger readers, which gives his work a mix of earnest instruction and lively narrative.

Modern readers are most likely to encounter him through No Living Voice, a ghost story from 1872 that has outlasted many of his other writings. While detailed biographical material appears to be limited online, the available sources consistently present him as a 19th-century churchman whose writing ranged from sermons and moral tales to memorable supernatural fiction.
