Elizabeth Hope
Elizabeth Reid Cotton, Lady Hope (9 December 1842–8 March 1922) was a British evangelist and supporter of the Temperance movement.
In 1915, Hope claimed to have visited the British naturalist Charles Darwin shortly before his death in 1882, during which interview Hope said Darwin spoke of second thoughts about publicizing the theory of evolution. That Hope visited Darwin is possibly true, though her interpretation of what Darwin said at the putative interview is much less likely.
