_Mrs. Cornelly's_ is stated, in vol. ii. p. 753., _to be_ "the corner of
Sutton Street," Soho Square, "_now D'Almaines's_." Mrs. Cornelly's _was_
at the corner of Sutton Street, but has long been pulled down: the
Catholic chapel _in_ Sutton Street was Mrs. Cornelly's concert, ball,
and masquerade-room; and the arched entrance below the chapel, and now a
wheelwright's, was the entrance for "chairs." D'Almaine's is two doors
north of Sutton Street, and was built by Earl (?) Tilney, the builder of
Wanstead House? The House in Soho Square has a very fine
banqueting-room, the ceiling said to have been painted by Angelica
Kauffmann. Tilney was fond of giving magnificent dinners, and here was
always to be found "the flesh of beeves, with Turkie and other small
Larks!"
_Cock Lane_.--The house in Cock Lane famous for its "Ghost" _is still_
standing, and the back room, where "scratching Fanny" lay surrounded by
princes and peers, is converted into a gas meter manufactory.
