Robertson Nicoll's British Weekly and the Hodder and Stoughton publishing network in the late 1880s and early 1890s. They were friends, and had planned to visit Stevenson in Samoa. Barrie took Crockett’s work ‘The PlayActress’ on honeymoon, intending to adapt it for the stage. This did not transpire. Crockett dedicated Cleg Kelly (1896) to Barrie.
