Dancers £25 Departmental Mr Lalauze as pr. his Note Endors'd by him Charles Lalauze seems to have been considered CG dancing master at this time, and to have introduced pupils of his to the stage, such that any payments to him may have constituted more than just his own salary. He was four times paid a note of hand endorsed by him, or "as pr. Note", in the 1746-47 season; these payments are here interpreted as his (and/or his pupils') due, paid in the form of promissory notes that he endorsed, then deposited with or used to pay third parties, who then cashed them with the theatre.
Proprietorial (Other) £4 4s External Mr. Rich on acct
Miscellaneous £36 7s 5d Departmental [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.
