Miscellaneous £34 2s 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.
Unknown £5 Unknown James Caston on acct BD vol. 3, pp. 99-100 identifies a single Mr Cason/Caston, dresser and wardrobe keeper at CG from at least 1735-36 through 1760-61, and assigns him no first name. Likewise the company lists at the start of CG's 1757-58 and 1760-61 account books list a Cason/Caston as a high-ranking member of the wardrobe department. But the 1746-47 expenditure records name both a James and Robert Caston. Presumably one, if not both of these worked in the wardrobe, but the uncertainty means that the payments concerned cannot be categorised.
