Excerpt from Austin Friars, Vol. 1 of 3: A Novel

Where the trains now go puffing in and out of the Cannon Street Terminus, there stood - before the recent changes which have made modern London almost unrecognisable to those who knew it when recent changes were undreamed of - a laro-e louise in a cul-de-sac called Scott's Yard.

Concerning who Scott may have been, and why he was considered worthy of having a Yard named after him, not merely general but local history is silent; yet that the place was where I have indicated, is certain from the fact that Scott's Yard still remains - a very ghost and spectre of its former self.
