Excerpt from The Alleyn Papers: A Collection of Original Documents Illustrative of the Life and Times of Edward Alleyn, and of the Early English Stage and Drama
We Will first insert the details with Which we are thus furnished, (leaving out. Only the useless titles of deeds and evidences, as Alleyn calls them) and then follow them by a few explanatory remarks. One item cannot fail to strike the reader immediately: it shews that Edward Alleyn (at what precise date does not appear) was in possession of an inn called The Boar's Head, which had formerly been kept by his elder bro ther, J ohn Alleyn. N o locality is stated; but it would be very singular if it were the very Boar's Head in Eastcheap, which existed in the time of Shakespeare, and which he has made so famous. It was, however, not an uncommon sign in London; and the inn which J ohn Alleyn at one time kept in Bishopsgate, and Which he inherited from his father, may have been so called.
