From the Macqueen-Pope papers. See the two men's entries in the Oxford DNB. MP is not named as the author, but there is no doubt that he is. Item one has corrections in his hand. Both versions are simply titled 'Will Fyffe'. The two versions exhibit a number of differences from one another. It is not clear where the obituary was published, but it was probably the London magazine 'Everybody's', for which MP contributed a weekly column. ONE: 4pp, 4to, double-spaced, on four leaves. Autograph corrections to first sentence, and an altogether more untidy effect (including an additional passage on the last page which is correctly positioned in the second draft below) suggest that this is an earlier draft. Begins: 'It was a freak [of fortune] that made Will Fyffe [into a] music hall [star] instead of remaining on the legitimate stage, where he had made his beginning as a small boy.'

More polished than One, and with emendations, deletions and recasting. Ends: 'Our stage has lost one of its greatest artists and finest men. How fine an actor he was few knew, although one celebrated critic glimpsed it when he wrote "Mr Fyffe has a sob here of which Garrick had bee proud.'.…
