Comments: This night the Chinese Festival was hotly call'd for by the Boxes, & strongly oppks'd by a few in the Pit, the Gentlemen came out, & insisted upon its being given out, wch at last Mr Garrick did; but not before it seem'd agreed that it shou'd be done 3 times a week for the Boxes, & other Entertainments the other 3 Days for the Pit, all Parties seem'd satisfied-but the Consequence prov'd otherways (Cross). Receipts: #170 (Cross)
