Richard Steele
Steele made many additional forays into periodical journalism. In 1684 he began attending Charterhouse School, London, where he met Joseph Addison. Published in “The Spectator,” March 1, 1711. He is a clergyman, a very philosophic man, of general learning, great sanctity of life, and the most exact good breeding. A poem on the funeral of Queen Mary 1695 , dedicated to Lord Cutts, colonel of the Coldstream Guards, brought him under the notice of that nobleman, who took the gentleman trooper into his household as a secretary, made him an officer in his own regiment, and ultimately procured for him a captaincy in Lord Lucas's regiment of foot. He was educated at Charterhouse, where he was a classmate of Richard Steele, and at Oxford, where he became a distinguished classical scholar.
They differed greatly in temperament, Steele being impulsive and warmhearted and Addison restrained and sedate. He is now in his fifty-sixth year, cheerful, gay, and hearty; keeps a good house both in town and country; a great lover of mankind; but there is such a mirthful cast in his behavior, that he is rather beloved than esteemed. The gentleman next in esteem and authority among us is another bachelor, who is a member of the Inner Temple, a man of great probity, wit, and understanding; but he has chosen his place of residence rather to obey the direction of an old humorsome father than in pursuit of his own inclinations. When he has talked to this purpose, I never heard him make a sour expression, but frankly confess that he left the world because he was not fit for it. Steele's position as gazetteer furnished him with special advantages for political news, and as a popular frequenter of coffeehouses he was at no loss for social gossip.
A constant need for money dominated much of Steele's life because his spending habits were impulsive and extravagant. When he is in town he lives in Soho Square. Steele had neither the fineness of touch nor the humorous malice that gives life and distinction to Addison's picture; the Sir Roger of his original hasty sketch has good sense as well as good nature, and the treatment is comparatively commonplace from a literary point of view, though unfortunately not commonplace in its charity. A strict honesty and an even regular behavior are in themselves obstacles to him that must press through crowds, who endeavor at the same end with himself, the favor of a commander. He is a gentleman that is very singular in his behavior, but his singularities proceed from his good sense, and are contradictions to the manners of the world, only as he thinks the world is in the wrong.
The food serving times are not known. Of this number, Steele authored about 240 issues.

Whatever may be the respective claims of Addison and Steele to the credit for the success of the “Spectator,” it is to Steele that the honor belongs of having founded its predecessor, the “Tatler,” and so of originating the periodical essay. In 1722 he wrote his last and most successful comedy, The Conscious Lovers. From the original painting by Sir Godfrey Kneller.

He continues to wear a coat and doublet of the same cut that were in fashion at the time of his repulse, which, in his merry humors, he tells us, has been in and out twelve times since he first wore it. All our frames have a smooth satin finish, and measure 20mm front face by 23mm depth from wall. But that our society may not appear a set of humorists, unacquainted with the gallantries and pleasures of the age, we have amongst us the gallant Will Honeycomb, a gentleman who, according to his years, should be in the decline of his life; but having ever been very careful of his person, and always had a very easy fortune, time has made but a very little impression either by wrinkles on his forehead, or traces on his brain. If your order is placed before the 11 a. No one ever took him for a fool; but none, except his intimate friends, know he has a great deal of wit.
With all his emoluments however the imprudent, impulsive, ostentatious and generous Steele could never get clear of financial difficulties, and he was obliged to retire from London in 1724 and live in the country.

His great-grandfather was inventor of that famous country-dance which is called after him. It was produced and published in 1701, and received on the stage with favour. As other men of his age will take notice to you what such a minister said upon such and such an occasion, he will tell you when the Duke of Monmouth danced at court, such a woman was then smitten, another was taken with him at the head of his troop in the park.
The person of next consideration is Sir Andrew Freeport, a merchant of great eminence in the city of London; a person of indefatigable industry, strong reason, and great experience. Honours and substantial rewards were showered upon him. It is for the good of the audience when he is at the play, for the actors have an ambition to please him. If your order is placed after the 11 a. The Tatler made its first appearance on the 12th of April 1709. The Englishman was resuscitated for another volume in 1715; and he subsequently projected in rapid succession three unsuccessful ventures - Town Talk, the Tea Table and Chit Chat. Next to Sir Andrew in the clubroom sits Captain Sentry, a gentleman of great courage, good understanding, but invincible modesty.

He knows the history of every mode, and can inform you from which of the French king’s wenches our wives and daughters had this manner of curling their hair, that way of placing their hoods; whose frailty was covered by such a sort of a petticoat, and whose vanity to show her foot made that part of the dress so short in such a year.
