However Horace Bleackley was more explicit: 'The graceful Harriet Powell, equally frail and famous, whose winsome face was portrayed in many a mezzotint, had spent her early youth as an inmate of Mrs Hayes's disreputable establishment in King's Place, but now at last she had become faithful to one man, and was keeping house with Lord Seaforth, the creator of a famous regiment'. Engraved by Richard Purcell under pseudonym of Corbutt, after Catherine Read..
