Morning Chronicle 9.5.1796 "The Poets Gallery is now open, with the addition of several new pictures". Thomas Macklin DNB 1752-1800 at 37 Fleet St. Dyson & Kearsley were both artists

There is a strange note in Godwin's diary on 5.2.1795 Macklin dies in small writing at bottom of that day's section. Probably Godwin intended to record the death of the actor Charles Macklin who died on 11.7.1797, but he didn't make any other note of Macklin's death
