Halliwell has more particularly made Shakespeare the study of his
life. He brought out a magnificent and elaborately annotated and
illustrated edition of his favourite author in 16 folio volumes.
Perhaps no literary man living has ever seen so many books
through the press as writer and editor. Having pecuniary means,
he has followed no profession. A list of upwards of fifty of his
works, &c., will be found in Allibone’s Dict. of Eng. Lit. He has
also been a constant contributor of valuable notes to Notes and
Queries. He is also author of An Introduction to the Evidences of

LAWRENCE, Frederick, born about 1821, in Berkshire, where his
father was a large farmer; was in the employ of Messrs. Simpkin,
Marshall, and Co., the booksellers and publishers, and afterwards
in the printed book department, British Museum, a short time
after his friend J. Humffreys Parry (now serjeant-at-law).
Having written some articles that were considered clever, he was
advised to go to the Bar. He accordingly entered himself of the
Middle Temple, and was called in 1849. He attended the Berkshire
Sessions, and obtained some success at the Bar. The author of
this little work had the melancholy satisfaction of seeing him a
few days before his death, to ask his permission to make such use
as we required of some of his articles in Sharpe’s Lond. Mag.,
which was readily granted. He published “The Life of Fielding
...” _Hall, Virtue, and Co._, 1855 (with some bibliographical
notes by Mr. Thomas Watts in the Appendix). This is a capital
biography, replete with interesting particulars, and information
on contemporary writers. Mr. Lawrence collected many notes for a
second edition, and also, we have heard, for a Life of Smollett.
He was on the staff of the Weekly Dispatch for many years, and,
we believe, contributed to other periodical publications, and was
also editor of the Lawyer’s Companion, _Stevens and Sons_, 1864
to 1868. During a short stay at Boulogne, he was seized with an
attack of dropsy, which necessitated his immediate return. The
disease had invaded his system for some years, and had rendered
him less active and more disinclined to any kind of work than he
was during his better days of health. He died at his chambers in
the Temple on the 25th of October, 1867. _A Barrister._

MADDEN, D. O., b. 1815, Ireland -1852 the son of a merchant, of
Cork, his short life was entirely given up to literary pursuits,
in which he eventually wore himself out, so that he may almost
be said to have died of exhaustion of the brain. From a whim
somewhat similar to that of Captain Marryat, Madden desired that
no public notice should be taken of his death, and consequently
there is none in any of the newspapers, nor in the Gent. Mag.,
or Annual Register. The Athenæum, however, was not bound to
be silent, and in 1859 (ii. 209, 246) it gave a short but
interesting notice of his literary labors. Ireland and its Rulers
since 1839, appears to be his first autonymous work; but he was
chiefly addicted to the anonymous and pseudonymous. For the sake,
it is said, of distinguishing himself from another Madden he
wrote his name Maddyn. The man who desired no obituary memoirs
changed his name that he might be known! _North, D._
