Expenditure

Category Amount Payment Type A/c book entry Notes
Benefit Payments £93 1s 6d Internal Pd. Mrs Glover Benefit Ball[.]
Benefit Payments £63 17s Internal Pd. Mr Billington on Acct. of 1st. Nt. Nina
Writers of Parts £50 Internal Paid Do. [Mr Booth] his Sallary for Do [Writing]
Benefit Payments £37 18s Internal Paid Mr Booth Benefit Ball[.]
Unknown £20 Unknown Pd. Capt. Hill
Loan Repayments (as Debtor) £19 19s External Pd. Mr Const Perhaps a payment to William Powell's heirs for the rental of his portion of the Covent Garden property. However, the small, miscellaneous monetary figure suggest that it was related to the payments of 1 January 1789 (Paid Do. [Mr Const] for Int) and 17 February 1789 ("Pd. Mr. Const in full the £600 by him advanced"). Yet it is possible that even that £600 was advanced to Powell's heirs for the rental, and the theatre then reimbursed Const (as well as paying him interest).
Writers of Parts £18 1s 6d Internal Paid Do. [Mr Booth] a Bill for Writing
Benefit Payments £6 14s 6d Internal Pd. Mr Darley Benefit Ball[.]
Singers £2 2s Internal Pd. Do. [Mr Darley] an allowance Mrs. Glovers Nt
