the licensing act see Watson Nicholson, _The Struggle for a Free Stage

Reader, 1888), p. 24. P.J. Crean, "The Life and Times of Kitty Clive,"
Diss. Univ. of London, 1933, is, however, the authority on Clive's life.
I am indebted to Professor Crean.

Century_ (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1961), p. 69.

[12] Yet, with Fitzgerald (_Life_, p. 34), I believe that Fielding could
have helped Mrs. Clive ready her Case for the press. Certainly the
"correctness" of that printed text could not have been achieved by her
alone. Cf. Clive's MS letters, Appendix, "An Edition of the
Afterpieces."

[13] See Crean, "Life and Times," p. 215. A pertinent example of actors'
seeking redress is, of course, the revolt of 1694-1695, described by
John Downes, _Roscius Anglicanus_ (London. 1708), pp. 43-44; Augustan
Reprint Society publication number 134 (Los Angeles, 1969), with an
Introduction by John Loftis, is a facsimile of the first edition.
