An actor whose unrivalled powers

Took in the whole extent of Comic Character,

From Pathos to heart-shaking Mirth.

His coloring was that of nature, warm, fresh,

And enriched with the finest conceptions of Genius.

He was a member of the Chestnut Street Theatre,

Philadelphia,

In its most high and palmy days,

and the compeer

Of Cooper, Wood, Warren, Francis,
