The Elizabethan Stage, Vol. 2

by E. K. Chambers

[1426] Henslowe, ii. 25.

[1427] Henslowe Papers, 107. I agree with Dr. Greg (Henslowe, ii. 30, 39) that it is difficult to see what a lease from Thomas Garland to Henslowe and Alleyn in 1608 of a close called Long Slip or Long Meadow in Lambeth can have had to do with the baiting. But Alleyn added the word ‘Bear-garden’ to the original endorsement ‘M^r Garlands lece’ (Henslowe Papers, 12). Perhaps the land was used for some subsidiary purpose in connexion with the Garden.

[1428] Henslowe Papers, 110; Architectural Review, xlvii. 152.

[1429] Full text in Alleyn Memoirs, 78; abstract in Henslowe Papers, 102.

[1430] Henslowe, i. 214; cf. p. 189 (supra).

[1431] Cf. p. 458.

[1432] Cf. ch. xviii.

[1433] Henslowe Papers, 19, from Dulwich Muniment 49; also printed in Variorum, iii. 343. Muniment 50 is Katherens’ bond, and Muniment 51 a sub-contract of 8 Sept. 1613 with John Browne, bricklayer, to do the brickwork for £80.

[1434] Cf. p. 370.
