Comments:
[In mainpiece the playbill retains Aickin as Jarvis, but "Packer Jarvis, Aickin ill" (Powell). This is inaccurate: "Aickin's part was played by Benson" (Thespian Magazine, July 1794, p. 275; and see 5 June).] Powell: Natural Son rehearsed at 10 (Suett ill; Miss Pope one scene; Burton not called till 12); Lodoiska at 12. Receipts: #267 18s. 6d. (199/8/0; 60/9/6; 8/1/0)
