<!-- During her time on the board of the Abbey, Coole Park remained her home; she spent her time in Dublin staying in a number of hotels. For example, at the time of the 1911 national census, she was staying in a hotel at 16 South Frederick Street.<ref>[http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai000209724/ 1911 Census Form]</ref> In these she dined frugally, often on food she had brought with her from home. She frequently used her hotel rooms to interview would-be Abbey dramatists and to entertain the company after opening nights of new plays. She spent many of her days working on her translations in the [[National Library of Ireland]]. She gained a reputation as being a somewhat conservative figure.<ref>DiBattista and McDiarmid 1996, p. 216.</ref> For example, when [[Denis Johnston]] submitted to the Abbey his first play, ''Shadowdance'', it was rejected by Lady Gregory and returned to the author with "The Old Lady says No" written on the title page.<ref>Dick, Ellmann and Kiberd 1992. p. 183.</ref> Johnston decided to rename the play, and ''The Old Lady Says 'No!' '' was eventually staged by the [[Gate Theatre]] in 1928. -->
