Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lives of the Players, Vol. 2 of 2 They are not always the greatest men whose lives and adventures best deserve to be recorded; those only who have met with remarkable events, and encountered in the course of their fortunes accidents different from the ordinary tenour of human affairs, are worthy of the honour. In some respects Macklin was of this description; he was not so eminent in his profession as to be entitled to the distinction he claimed, and which be in a great measure obtained, but still his life was greatly an exception to the biography of others. Charles M´Laughlin, (for so he was really called,) was descended from the Irish clan of that name. Macklin himself used to say, that they considered themselves as the descendants of the ancient kings of Ireland, and that, in his time, to maintain the memory of their alliance to royalty, the chief once a year held a solemn court, to which all the kin of the clan repaired. "I have myself been once at this royal meeting," he sometimes said, "and could not help being exceedingly impressed with the ceremony of my introduction to our chief, who, as a relation, received me most graciously."
