Event Comment: Thomas Isham, Diary: It is reported that Harris has killed his associate actor, in a scene on the stage, by accident. It was the tragedy called Macbeth, in which Harris performed the part of Macduff, and ought to have slain his fellow-actor, Macbeth; but during the fence it happened that Macduff pierced Macbeth in the eye, by which thrust he fell lifeless, and could not bring out the last words of his part, 'Farewell vane world, and farewell, which is worse, ambition' (Walter Rye, The Journal of Thomas Isham of Lamport [1875], p. 102). VanLennep--See 9 Aug. 1673--doubts that Cademan ever played Macbeth and thinks that Downes's version is the more probable. See also Nicoll, Restoration Drama, pp. 367-68

Event Comment: Thomas Shadwell to Earl of Dorset, 19 Jan. 1691@2 (summary): Asks that he will order The Innocent Impostors to be the next new play to be acted. He would have had it acted in Roman Habits and then, with a mantle to have covered her hips, [if] Mrs Barry would have acted the part; but Thomas Davenant has with a great slight turned him off, and says he will trouble himself no more about the Play. Asks Dorset to favour the author and him. Complains of priority being given to Durfey's play and a play by Dryden (HMC, 4th Report, Appendix [1874], pp. 280-81)
