In 1603 appeared a curious compilation, the work of Henry Chettle, bearing the title: 'Englandes Mourning Garment: Worne here by plaine Shepheardes; in memorie of their sacred Mistresse, Elizabeth, Queene of Vertue while shee lived, and Theame of Sorrow, being dead. To which is added the true manner of her Emperiall Funerall.
He gave it" here, though the door was closed and bolted, and there was no fear of eavesdroppers, he sank his voice to a whisper "he gave it to Fullaway's secretary, the woman we discussed, Mrs. Marlow. That's a fact. He gave it to her just before he set off for Russia." Chettle screwed his lips up to whistle instead of whistling he suddenly relaxed them to a comprehending smile.
It was Bardolph who drew him out from under the knee and belaboring fists of one Thomas Chettle, another grammar-school boy, who had him down, behind High Cross in the Rother Market. "In the devil's name," said Bardolph, setting him on his feet, "with your nose all gore an' never an eye you can open what do you mean, boy, to be letting the like of that come over you?"
He snapped open the case of the watch as he spoke and showed Allerdyke, neatly cut out to a circle, neatly fitted into the case, a photograph the photograph of James Allerdyke! And Allerdyke started as if he had been shot, and let out a sharp exclamation. "My God!" he cried. "James! James, by all that's holy and in there!" "You recognize it, of course?" said Chettle, with a grim smile.
All interested readers knew who they were: and also knew who "Shakespeare" or "Will Shakespeare" was. But though the mere names of the poets, Ben Jonson, Kit Marlowe, Frank Beaumont, Harry Chettle, and so forth, are accepted as indicating the well-known men whom they designate, this evidence to identity does not satisfy Mr. Greenwood, and the Baconians, where Will is concerned.
I've thought things out a good deal, and we can do a lot, you and me, before going to the police, though I don't think it 'ud do any harm to tell this man Chettle, supposing he were here because his discovery of that photo is the real thing." "What can we do, then?" asked Allerdyke. "Make use of the two Gaffneys," answered Appleyard without hesitation. "They're smart chaps -real keen 'uns.
"A thread here, a thread there! Heaven knows what it'll all come to. But this Chettle's a good 'un he's like to do things." Chettle joined him in the smoking-room of the hotel at a quarter to seven, and immediately produced a telegram. "Came half an hour ago," he said as they sat down in a corner. "Nobody but myself seen it up to now. And it's just what I expected. Read it."
"So that," began Chettle suggestively, "so that " "So that the thing now is to find who it is that made the reproduction," said Allerdyke. "When we've found him or her I reckon we shall have found the man who's at the heart of all this. Leave that to me!
The day before, Will Shakespeare had followed a company of strolling mountebanks about town instead of going to school. And Thomas Chettle had told Schoolmaster, and he had told Father. When Will reached home the evening before, Dad was telling as much to Mother and blaming her for it. "An' Chettle's lad admits Will had ever rather see the swords an' hear a drum than look upon his lessons "
Henslowe does not record his sale of the Dekker and Chettle play to Shakespeare's or to any company or purchaser. Without an entry of the careful Henslowe recording his receipts for the sale of the Dekker and Chettle play to any purchaser, it is not easy to see how Shakespeare's company procured the manuscript, and thus enabled him to refashion it.
