At her houfe at Jacob's Well, Bristol, Mrs. Jane Green, the celebrated actress, who for many years diftinguished herself by the powerful exertions of her comic talents on the ftages of Drury-lane and Covent-garden theatres. Mrs. G. was the daughter of that eminent comedian Mr. Hippefley, the predeceffor of Yates and Shuter. She began her career on the stage of Goodman's-fields playhoufe, about the time that Mr. Garrick commenced the profeffion of an actor. She was married to Henry Green, efq. who died fome few years fince, purfer of the Namur, a 90gun fhip. After a painfu! struggle with Nature for eight weeks, Mrs. G. (having completed her 72d year) was carried off by a mortification in her limbs, which age and imbecillity, occafioned by illness, and a leng courfe of medicine, rendered it out of the power of Art to ftop. In private life, Mrs. G. was an affectionate wife, a tender parent, and a steady friend. She has left behind her two fons, the elder a captain of marines, the younger at prefent unprovided for. As an actress, we have no one performer, on either of our stages, equal to Mrs. Green in the termagants, and few in the pert chambermaids, and various other comic and farcical characters. She was the powerful rival of Clive, in the best days of Kitty's powers; and, as long as the continued on the stage, was defervedly a great favourite with the publick. She quitted Covent-garden theatre a few years fince, on a pique, occafioned by fome difference with the manager; and has ever fince refided in a small houfe of her own near Jacob's Well, Brittol, which her father built when proprietor of the adjoining THEATRICAL Aug.
