[126] Macklin was the original Buck; but when Foote produced the farce, during his own engagement, he played the part himself.

[127] During the period here referred to, Foote played the part.

[128] He certainly played during this summer, but probably only for a short period.

[129] This is very inaccurate. "The Cozeners" was produced in 1774, and Dodd was not hanged till 1777.

[130] Jackson who, as "Curtius," threatened Garrick.—Doran MS.

[131] Edwin made his first appearance in London in 1776, as Flaw, in "The Cozeners."

[132] Should be Miss Farren.

[133] There is a slight confusion here. The company opened at the Haymarket in September. They did not go to Drury Lane till April.

[134] Boaden's "Fontainville Forest" might be added.

[135] I do not think this was Thompson's translation.

[136] Should be Cumberland.

[137] Reynold's "Fortune's Fool" might be added.

[138] Translated by Thompson.

[139] Genest says "attributed to Holcroft, but really written by Fenwick."

[140] Mrs. Inchbald's "Wise Man of the East" might be added.
