Mr. Saul for Do [New Theatre] |
Entry in BL MS Eg. 2307 illegible and is followed by a legible but confusing and seemingly erroneous record, "Paid Mr. Do for Do". Entry here therefore supplied from BL MS 29958 instead. |

Do [Mr. Saul] for Old Theatre |
Entry in BL MS Eg. 2307 reads "Paid Mr. Do for Do", but follows an illegible record, and, according to logic and to BL MS 29958, ought to refer to a different theatre from the previous entry and therefore ought not to read "Do". Entry here therefore supplied from BL MS 29958 instead. |

Mr. Bradwell for Supernums &c |
This was the weekly payment made to Bradwell usually described as "for Carpenters &c", pertaining to the theatre in which the Covent Garden company were then performing (as opposed to his weekly payment for the same thing at the "New Theatre"). |

Paid Mr. Ashley |
Presumably the same recipient as the "Mr. Charles Ashley" paid £200 1s on 6 May 1809, who was presumably Charles Ashley, son of John Ashley (d. 1805) and brother of Richard Ashley (not the coal merchant of that name, Richard G. Ashley). Both payments were probably related to the oratorios, but in what way is unclear. |
