Note 521 — Chapter XV
Reading edition
Fleay, Murray, and others are wrong in assuming that this troupe was merely a continuation of the Paul's Boys. So far as I can discover, there is no official record of the patent issued to Drayton; but that such a patent was issued is clear from the lawsuits of 1609, printed by Greenstreet in The New Shakspere Society's Transactions (1887-90), p. 269.
