[Footnote 110:  Terry had been educated as an architect, and his knowledge and taste were of assistance to Scott in connection with the building and furnishing of Abbotsford.  After 1812 he played chiefly in London.  In 1816 his version of Guy Mannering, the first of his adaptations from Scott, was presented.  Before this he had taken the part of Roderick Dhu in two dramatic versions of The Lady of the Lake.  In 1819 he was the first David Deans in his adaptation of The Heart of Midlothian.  Six years later he became manager of the Adelphi theater, in association with F.H.  Yates.  At this time Scott became Terry’s security for L1280, a sum which he was afterward obliged to pay with the addition of L500 for which the credit of James Ballantyne was pledged.  When financial embarrassment caused Terry to retire from the management his mental and physical powers gave way, and he died of paralysis in 1829.  Terry admired Scott so much that he learned to imitate his facial expression, his speech and his handwriting.]

[Footnote 112:  The phrase, which was a favorite one of Scott’s, is spoken not by Tony Lumpkin, but by one of his tavern companions.  Scott’s use of it is an indication of the way in which he was familiar with the drama.  Very likely he never reread the play after his youth, but his strong memory doubtless retained a pretty definite impression of it.]

[Footnote 119:  Advertisement to Halidon Hill.  When the publisher Cadell closed a bargain with Scott in five minutes for Halidon Hill, giving him L1000, he wrote as follows to his partner:  “My views were these:  here is a commencement of a series of dramatic writings—­let us begin by buying them out.” (Constable’s Correspondence, Vol.  III, p. 217.)]
