Composers £280 External Paid Mr: Dibdin in full of all Demands Presumed to be a payment to Charles Dibdin for his composition work at Covent Garden. But he also devised and/or wrote words for some of his pieces, so perhaps this payment should equally or better be understood as a more general authorial payment. It may also have encompassed payment for onstage performance.
