Note 525 — Chapter XV
Reading edition
By a stupid error often called Lodowick Barry. For an explanation of the error see an article by the present writer in Modern Philology, April, 1912, ix, 567. Mr. W.J. Lawrence has recently shown (Studies in Philology, University of North Carolina, April, 1917) that David Barry was the eldest son of the ninth Viscount Buttevant, and was called "Lording" by courtesy. At the time he became interested in the Whitefriars Playhouse he was twenty-two years old. He died in 1610.
