| Evidence: | Elizabeth Missing Sewell on a stay at her aunt Mrs Hanbury's London house during late 1835:
'The house and the situation [John Street, Bedford Row] were alike dreary [...] The only gleam of romance I had in connection with the place was derived from the fact that the large bare house reminded me of a description of one like it in an old novel by Miss Hawkins --"The Countess and Gertrude".'
