Note 460 — Chapter XIII

Reading edition

The writer of the manuscript notes in the Phillipps copy of Stow's Annals (see The Academy, October 28, 1882, p. 314), who is not trustworthy, says that the Fortune was burned down in 1618, and "built again with brick work on the outside," from which Mr. Wallace assumed that he meant that the building was merely brick-veneered. If the writer meant this he was in error. See the report of the commission appointed by Dulwich College to examine the building (Greg, Henslowe Papers, p. 95).
