THE JOURNAL of DA VID GARRICK, DESCRIBING HIS VISIT to FRANCE and ITALY in 1763.

First printed and editedwith an Introduction and Notes, by GeorgeWinchester Stone Jr. '30. MLA Pub., 193975 PP-

Mr. Stone's scholarly editing does full justice to this fragment that sparsely covers but 15 of the 73 pages. It is very human. Garrick promises, "I shall always write down my thoughts"; but after a fortnight he ceases to do so. He has someone else fill 18 pages with the books he purchased in Italy, apparently with an eye to profit.

He warms to the honors paid him by the Comedie Fransaise, but finds their great Mile. Duminile "made up of trick." He bemoans paying Mrs. Cibber "£700 beside her Benefit" when a French star is content with £250. At Lyons when a petty thief is "broke upon ye wheel," he remarks: "The French can't bear Murder upon ye Stage but rack criminals for Small thefts, we can bear any Butchery upon ye Stage and hang only for ye greatest Thefts and Murder."

An admirable introduction and notes help us to a fairly complete account of the "grand tour" that Garrick apparently enjoyed too much to record in full.
