[223] [The right of this house to be called ‘John Knox’s House’ has
been strenuously disputed; several other houses in which Knox actually
lived have been identified by Robert Miller, F.S.A. Scot., Lord Dean of
Guild of Edinburgh, in _John Knox and the Town Council of Edinburgh,
with a Chapter on the so-called ‘John Knox’s House’_ (1898). For the
genuineness of the tradition, said not to be older than 1806, see Lord
Guthrie’s _John Knox and John Knox’s House_ (1898).]
