In consequence of repeated Forgeries of Tickets on Benefit Nights, particularly those of $Miss Wallis=, $Mr Incledon=, $Mr Holman=, and $Mrs Mattocks=, it has been found necessary to offer a large Reward for the Discovery of the Person or Persons concerned in this unjust and cruel Practice. Mr Fawcett, therefore, thinks it his Duty to warn his Friends and the Public from purchasing Tickets for his Night of Strangers, especially those Persons who sell them in the Avenues of the Theatre, as all such will be stopt at the Doors, and if forged the Persons offering them for Admittance will be drawn into a disagreeable dilemma" (printed slip attached to <i>Kemble playbill</i>).
