Elizabeth Parker
A prostitute picked up by Boswell in St. James Park on March 25th, 1763. Boswell described her as "a young Shropshire girl, only seventeen, very well-looked, her name Elizabeth Parker. Poor being, she has a sad time of it".
Unless otherwise noted, the source for a dated quotation of Boswell's is generally the corresponding volume of the Yale Trade Editions of Boswell's journals.
