Mr. Cooke on acct. |
BD vol. 3, p. 472 identifies the recipient as Philip Cooke, dancer, but notes that "he seems not to have performed" at CG this season. Perhaps he was being paid arrears, or for some occasional guest performances or other services. |

Mr. Gwinn Do. [on acct.] |
BD vol. 6, pp. 454-55 describes William Gwinn and his son, Mr Gwinn, working as officekeepers and doorkeepers at CG, and William's wife/widow, Lucy Gwinn, running a silk dyeing business and also working for CG's wardrobe in some capacity. Yet CG paid a Mr Gwinn numerous times 1746-50, after William's death, "on acct.", and once for "the ballance of his Bill for Dying &c". It therefore seems that William and Lucy's son was involved in dyeing and other clothes-related work. |

[nightly charge] |
This season's account book does not record or itemise the nightly charges, but it is evident that they were diverted from the nightly receipts. The sums are here calculated by deducting the money received into the treasury from this night's performance receipts or benefit charge, as appropriate. |
