Harriet Wilson : Memoirs
Friday, 9 December 1825: 'The gay world has been kept in hot water lately by the impudent publication of the celebrated Harriet Wilson [...] She must have been assisted in the style spelling and diction though the attempt at wit is very poor -- that at pathos sickening. But there is some good retailing of conversations in which the stile of the speakers so far as known to me is exactly imitated [comments further on text and its author]'.
