[{326}] In the Quarterly Review, vol. cxxxi. pp. 336-337, Dr. Carpenter criticises an account given by Lord Crawford of this performance. He asks for the evidence of the other witnesses. This was supplied. He detects a colloquial slovenliness in a phrase. This was cleared up. He complains that the light was moonlight. ‘The moon was shining full into the room.’ A minute philosopher has consulted the almanack and denies that there was any moon!
[{327}] Lord Crawford’s evidence is in the Report of the Dialectical Society, p. 214
