For the _Encyclopaedia Britannica_ Scott wrote an essay on Chivalry, as well as the one on Romance to which reference has been made.] [Footnote 108: Review of _Kelly's Reminiscences and the Life of Kemble_, _Quarterly Review_, June, 1826.] [Footnote 109: _Lockhart_, Vol. II, p. 97.] [Footnote 110: Terry had been educated as an architect, and his knowledge and taste were of assistance to Scott in connection with the building and furnishing of Abbotsford. After 1812 he played chiefly in London. In 1816 his version of _Guy Mannering_, the first of his adaptations from Scott, was presented. Before this he had taken the part of Roderick Dhu in two dramatic versions of _The Lady of the Lake_. In 1819 he was the first David Deans in his adaptation of _The Heart of Midlothian_. Six years later he became manager of the Adelphi theater, in association with F.H. Yates. At this time Scott became Terry's security for L1280, a sum which he was afterward obliged to pay with the addition of L500 for which the credit of James Ballantyne was pledged. When financial embarrassment caused Terry to retire from the management his mental and physical powers gave way, and he died of paralysis in 1829. Terry admired Scott so much that he learned to imitate his facial expression, his speech and his handwriting.] [Footnote 111: _Lockhart_, Vol. I, p. 94.] [Footnote 112: The phrase, which was a favorite one of Scott's, is spoken not by Tony Lumpkin, but by one of his tavern companions. Scott's use of it is an indication of the way in which he was familiar with the drama. Very likely he never reread the play after his youth, but his strong memory doubtless retained a pretty definite impression of it.] [Footnote 113: _Review of the Life and Works of John Home_, _Quarterly_, June, 1827.] [Footnote 114: _Familiar Letters_, Vol. II, p. 143.] [Footnote 115: _Lockhart_, Vol. III, p. 427. It may be noted that this criticism does not show much dramatic insight.] [Footnote 116: _Lockhart_, Vol. III, pp. 445-6.] [Footnote 117: _Journal_, Vol. I, p. 117; _Lockhart_, Vol. IV, p. 447.] [Footnote 118: _Journal_, Vol. I, p. 94; _Lockhart_, Vol. IV, p. 419.] [Footnote 119: Advertisement to _Halidon Hill_. When the publisher Cadell closed a bargain with Scott in five minutes for _Halidon Hill_, giving him L1000, he wrote as follows to his partner: "My views were these: here is a commencement of a series of dramatic writings--let us begin by buying them out." (_Constable's Correspondence_, Vol. III, p. 217.)] [Footnote 120: "That well-written, but very didactic 'Old Play'," as Adolphus calls it. (_Letters to Heber_, p. 55.)] [Footnote 121: Introductory epistle to _Nigel_.] [Footnote 122: _Lockhart_, Vol. V, p. 414.] [Footnote 123: Fitzgerald's _New History of the English Stage_, Vol. II, p. 404.] [Footnote 124: _Dramatic Essays_, Hazlitt's _Works_, Vol. VIII, p. 422.]
