This pathetic drama was first performed by the Summer-Company' of actors at Drury-Lane, June 22Dd, 1731 ; and, perhaps, the tune of the old ballad suggested the original announcement of A New Play called The Mer- chant, or the True Historij of George Barnwell: which, on the second night, the 2jth, was altered to The London Merchant, or the True Story of George Barnuell ; under which title it was plaj^ed 17 times almost without inter- mission, in a verj' hot season. It excited such universal att
...ention, that on Friday, July 2nd, the Queen sent for the manuscript, which Wilks carried to Hampton-Court.
jMrs. Cibber was the first performer of Maria, and delivered the Epilogue ; Mrs. Butler was Millwood, and Theophilus Cibber spake the Prologue, and was the original George Barnwell ; but though these were all highly admired, the most honourable applause was tliat given in 1752, to Ross and Mrs. Pritchard, whose impressive performance awakened and preserved a A'oung man in the same circumstances as Barnuell.
