DDaily Post, 8 Feb.: Yesterday...some Persons in the gallery were so clamorous that the Play could not go on, but a Constable, assisted by a Serjeant and the Guards, prevail'd on them to walk out. gne of them was carried before a Justice of the Peace, and confess'd what he had done. It is to be observ'd that this Person had the Scornful Lady lately acted for his Benefit, in Consideration of his withdrawing a Play which was offer'd by him to be acted there, which Play we hear is since carried to the other House
