Description:Excerpt from How Shakespeare's Skull Was Stolen and Found The uncle of the late Mr. M., a youth who bore the name of Frank Chambers, was placed with a medical man (the only one practising in Alcester) about the year 1787. He was a wild, rather dashing young fellow; not bad-looking, if a portrait taken in after years be evidence; and, coming straight from attendance at a London hospital, found the exclusive society of a small town uncongenial, and its restraints irksome. Owing to a certain mild escapade - the manuscript alleges that it was nothing more heinous than a practical joke upon the curate in charge at the tumbledown old rectory - he found it convenient to leave Alcester and to go abroad; and as Englishmen did not then dream of a trip to America or to Australia, his wanderings were confined to France, The heart of the French nation was then beginning to throb with the feverish heat of revolution, and 'gentlemen of the pave' had already defined liberty on the 'lucus a non lucendo' principle. Frank Chambers, like Arthur Young, was a strict observer of the national moral bankruptcy, and three of his letters from Rheims show that he was not deceived, like some greater minds among his own countrymen, by the tendency of thought and action in France at that remarkable period.
