Evidence: "A good & wise saying once went forth in our family that you are the prototype of Charlotte in the Heir of Redcliffe [sic]: certainly your long letter (which I have only just got) most fully justifies it."
Frequency Mentioned: Twice; 1:110 (41) "Well after this digression I come to the point which is that he adores Miss Yonge. I mention it as a wonderful fact because I never yet saw a boy who did. He can repeat pages of the Heir of Redcliffe [sic] & thinks Guy a Demigod. I had a long discussion in which he endeavoured but I think failed to prove that Guy was natural--a possible, tangible, & not at all improbable human being."
