<br />
== In the Sherlock Holmes stories ==<br />
<br />
* Mrs. Tangey was the [[Mr. Tangey|commissionaire]]'s wife ([[NAVA]] {{refcanon|NAVA|442}}).<br />
<br />
* She was a bad lot, given to drinking ([[NAVA]] {{refcanon|NAVA|446}}).<br />
<br />
* On the night of the theft, she answered [[Percy Phelps]]'s ring for coffee instead of her husband, explaining she wanted to spare him since he was tired ([[NAVA]] {{refcanon|NAVA|452}}).<br />
<br />
* She was seen hurrying away from the Foreign Office around the time of the theft, which raised police suspicions ([[NAVA]] {{refcanon|NAVA|245}}).<br />
<br />
* [[Percy Phelps]] and [[Forbes|Inspector Forbes]] pursued her to her home in Ivy Lane, Brixton, and had her searched at Scotland Yard — but no treaty was found ([[NAVA]] {{refcanon|NAVA|248}}).<br />
