The Mirror of Taste, and Dramatic Censor, Vol. I, No. 3, March 1810

Mr. Lewis, the player, on his late retirement from the stage,
reminded the public that he had been six and thirty years playing to
them, and had never once received the slightest disapprobation. Had
a fragment of the ignorant mob of London been permitted to rule the
theatre he would have been hissed a thousand times, if it were for
nothing else but his superior merit. This we can affirm, that Mr.
Wood is at least as inoffensive as Mr. Lewis.
