“His life was so picturesque as to resemble romantic fiction, and his rufous, swaggering, radical, patrician figure haunts the literature of the period. He appears as 'Mr. X' in Conrad's The Informer, Mr. Courtier'' in Galsworthy's The Patrician, and as 'Mr. Graham' in Wells's When the Sleeper Wakes; Professor Norman Sherry saw him in Charles Gould in Nostromo, while Professor Molly Mahoud saw him as Etringham Granger of The Inheritors.”
