| Evidence: | Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 30 December 1842:
'I like Madme de Genlis in many of her writings [...] Do you know [...] the story of the
Duchesse de C. in the cavern, extended into three volumes? Would you like to know it, if you
do not already? I have it here. It belongs to me. And it always seems to me the very best,
most vivid & most interesting of its author's various romances, & well worth reading once or
twice or thrice.'
