MACHELL STACE returns his most grateful acknowledgments to the Public for their
very liberal Subscription to the above engraved Portrait, and respectfully submits to
them the few following Particulars relative to the Original.

M. STACE bought the Picture of Mr. LINNELL, Streatham-street, Bloomsbury, who bought it of Mr. TUFFING, Great Queen-street, Lincoln's Inn Fields. It was Sold at Mr. SQUIBB's Auction Rooms, where it was sent for Sale, with other Pictures, &c. the property of JOHN GRAHAM, Esq. who purchased it of Mr. SATHARD, at the Old Green Dragon Public House, Willson-street, Moorfields; Mr. SATHARD bought it Twelve Years since in a Sale of Fixtures, with some other Paintings, &c. belonging to the Three Pigeons, in Long-alley, Crown-street, Shoreditch, a very ancient built Public House, distant about 300 yards from Willson-street; Mrs. WHEATLEY, the Landlord's Daughter, who now lives in Angel-alley, near Long-alley, then resided with her Father at the Three Pigeons, and says, she recollects the Portrait there more than Forty-four Years since, with the other Fixtures, &c. as they had been taken from time to time, by different Landlords. Previous to the Sale, the License had been taken from the Three Pigeons, and it is now an Eating House, the Sign of PEEPING TOM, a Print of which is here added, from a Sketch obligingly taken by JOHN BARRETT, Esq.

P.S. M. STACE hopes, by the kind assistance of his Friends, to be made acquainted
with more particulars respecting the House to which this Portrait of SHAKSPEARE has been
traced, and also concerning the Family who then resided there; the result of which shall
be communicated, if it should be deemed interesting or illustrative of the subject.
