DISENCHANTMENT (DISAPPOINTMENT); OR, THE FORCE OF CREDULITY. A New
American Comic Opera of Three Acts, by Andrew Barton, Esquire.
New York, 1767.
"Perhaps an assumed name for Colonel Thomas Forrest, of
Germantown," a MS. note on an old copy in the Library of
Philadelphia. This opera was rehearsed by the Douglas Company in
Philadelphia, but was withdrawn, supposedly on account of personal
allusions of a rather pointed character. The _Disenchantment_ was
really printed in Philadelphia by Thomas Goddard, although bearing
a New York imprint.
