Scene Painters' Supplies £2 6s 3d Departmental Paid Wm: Flight for Salary William Flight was an assistant or housekeeper to the painting room. He was regularly paid for procuring colours and for his salary, and the two payments tended to be lumped together as "for Colours &ca" or "for Salary &ca". The overall spend on colours evidently outweighed that spent on his salary; and, because his role was specific to the painting room, even the pure salary payments have here been classed as "Scene Painters' Supplies".
