Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, 1689-1762, famous for her
Letters and for having introduced inoculation for smallpox into England. At the end of his account of her Boucher de la Richarderie
states that “Le baron de Tott, si connu par ses Mémoires, [q.v.] dont je donnerai dans la suite la notice, a vivement attaqué,
dans un journal, la véracité de milady Montaguë; mais M. Guys l’a vigoureusement défendue dans son Voyage littéraire de la
Gréce [q.v.], dont je rendrai compte aussi: cette défense se trouve aussi à la suite de la traduction des Lettres de milady
Montaguë, édition de Paris . . .”
