Excerpt from Thomas Doggett Deceased: A Famous Comedian The publication of this book was authorized by the Fishmongers' Company, for whom a special edition has been printed in addition to that issued to the public, as a record of what is known of Thomas Doggett, the famous Comedian, deceased, and of the Wager which he endowed to commemorate the accession of George I in 1714. For the pages referring to the sculling-race Mr. Guy Nickalls, formerly amateur champion of the Thames, is responsible. The biography of Thomas Doggett has been written by myself, and is a much enlarged and amended version of a short life I published some years ago in the Monthly Review, all the remaining copies of which are in the possession of the Fishmongers' Company.
