Fatal Accidents and a Meeting with Garrick in a London Shop
A fragment from The Bit Literary Chronicle recounts an 18th century scene in a shop where the narrator meets David Garrick after tea with Mr. Davies and Mrs. Davies. The conversation touches Scotland, Garrick’s disdain, and the narrator’s awkward misreadings, with Boswell noting Garrick’s rough manner but no ill will. The piece closes by recommending a dull evening with these volumes.
