About the Book

Excerpt from Jeannette Jeannot, or the Conscript's Vow: A Musical Drama in Two Acts The accompanying little sketch, without pretens ions to any great originality, was suggested by the immense popularity of the song of Jeannette and Jeannot, first sung in Edinburgh by myself. A piece de circonstance was produced in London, bearing the title of the ballad, which Mr Murray was anxious to produce at the Theatre Royal. Its merits, however, not meeting with the manager's approval, the idea occurred to me of constructing a story, or probable incident, of the conscription, and introducing the whole of the original songs and the duct, also a ballad I have presumed to pen myself. I submitted my play to Mr W. H. Murray, under whose management I was then engaged, and had the honour of receiving a very comphentary note from that gentleman, which I have much pleasure in subjoining, as a gentle apology for thus wildly rushing into print. Business obliged me to leave Scotland a fortnight after this date, which prevented Mr Murray from producing the piece, in which he had kindly offered to sustain the character of Napoleon. His wonderful likeness to the Emperor, when dressed for the part, is well re membered in Auld Beckie. I am indebted to the politeness of Mr Robinson for producing my little drama in this shape; and if you will - kindly allowing for the vanity of a scribbler - accord me a patient hearing, condemning me most heartily, if des d - but if you should chance to hesitate m your decision, pray give me the benefit of the doubt; and accept the most profound sen timents of respect from your very obedient servant.
