Best.-Nr. 15942Dibdin's letter: place not stated; 'Sep 11 - mn' dated in pencil in another hand '1824'. Copy of Chapple's reply: 'Pall Mall London Sep 12'. Dibdin's letter: 1p. 12mo.

Chapple Esq' with a nineteenth-century shelfmark at the foot of the page: 'C.68.Coll.CR.' In fair condtion on aged paper.

Autograph Signed Copy of Chapple's reply: 18 lines of neatly written text. He begins: 'Dr Sir I have been expecting your opera on our late understanding viz to Publish jointly I am however happy to learn you can have some money for it pray dont miss the offer as there is a very great dearth in the purchasing way as well as in all others.' He continues in the hope that Dibdin 'can assist' him 'wth cash' as he has 'a 37 on Saturday & two more next week and actually no stuff for either of them at this moment'. He is 'going out this morning in the forlorn hope' but expects his labour to be in vain. He ends by asking Dibdin to 'favor my Clerk with an order for 3 or for 2 this evening'.

Best.-Nr. 11432Undated circa 1802. 2pp. 4to. Good on lightly-aged paper. Divided into eight four-line stanzas each with the same two-line refrain. The first stanza: 'Fashion was formed when the World began And Adam I am told was a very smart man As for Eve I shall say nothing more or less. But that Ladies of Fashion now copy her dress. Yet barring all pother of this that & tother we all bow to Fashion in turn'. Containing witty references to the fashion for hunting boots and crops New Bond Street Tudor and Stuart clothing Whigs and Tories. The poem appears to have been popular as it was printed in various collections: attributed to Dibdin in 'Thespian Gleanings' Ulverston 1805 and printed anonymously in 'The Theatrical Banquet' London 1809 'The Syren' Newcastle: David Bass 1816 and 'The Roundelay' Doncaster: Thomas and Hunsley n.d. all with variations including the absence of the seventh stanza about 'The Fashion of Fighting' and the line 'And their Shoes were turn'd up like a Critical Nose;' printed as 'And their shoes were square toed yellow worsted their hose.' Possibly written during the Peace of Amiens in 1802-1803 as the seventh stanza states that 'Peace is the fashion'. Although it is likely that the manuscript is in Dibdin's hand comparison with an 1838 letter by him is inconclusive; the later hand is tighter and smaller while this manuscript is a larger fair hand copy.
