Note 696 — A FAIR QUARREL.

William Rowley] Whose name stands together with Middleton’s on the title-pages of several plays, is generally considered as a dramatist of the third class. He appears also to have been an actor,—one of the company of players belonging to the Prince of Wales,—and to have excelled more in comedy than tragedy. An alteration of his best piece, A New Wonder, a Woman never vext, was performed with success at Covent Garden theatre in 1824.
