Authors of Old Plays
We are enabled by the courtesy of several correspondents, to answer two of the Queries of Q.D., in No. 5. p. 77., respecting the authors of certain old plays. G.H.B. informs us that *Sicily and Naples* was written by Samuel Harding; of whom, as we learn from J.F.M., an account will be found in Wood's Athenae. NASO informs Q.D. that *Nero* was written by Matthew Gwinne; there are two editions of it, viz. 1603 and 1633,—and that a copy of it may be procured at 17. Wellington Street, Strand, for 2s.
