Singers £3 8s 6d Internal Mr. Roberts, Ballance of a Bill for his performce.
Metals £17 5s External Mr. Thos. Bedwell a Bill A Thomas Bedwell, ironmonger, was recorded voting in Westminster in 1749 (see London Lives). Probably he was part of the Bedwell and Freke, braziers/ironmongers, with whom CG was certainly dealing by 1757. There were other Bedwells, and records of unspecified Bedwells, from the 1740s onwards, but this recipient, at least, can be identified as the brazier/ironmonger with some confidence.
Proprietorial (Other) £7 7s External Mr Rich on acct
Miscellaneous £34 13s 3d 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.
