Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MOS-NAN
MOUNTFORT, WILLIAM (c. 1664-1692) ,
English
  actor and dramatic writer, was the son of a Staffordshire
gentleman
 . His first stage
appearance
  was with the Dorset
Garden
  company about 1678, and by 1682 he was taking important parts, usually those of the fine
gentleman
 . Mountfort wrote a number of plays, wholly or in
part
 , and many prologues and epilogues. He married, in 1686, Susanna Percival (see VERBRUGGEN, MRS), the actress. Owing to jealousy of Mrs Bracegirdle's supposed
interest
  in Mountfort, Captain
Richard
  Hill, an adventurer, who had annoyed her with persistent attentions, accompanied by Charles, fifth Baron Mohun, murdered Mountfort in Howard
Street
 , Strand, on the 9th of December 1692. Hill made his escape. Lord Mohun was tried by his peers and acquitted by a vote of 69 to 14.
