Event Comment: Benefit for the Author [of mainpiece]. [Certain members of the audience took objection to The Baron. Palmer came forward and said that the author "finding a strenuous opposition" would withdraw it. He then pointed "to several apples which some humane person or other...had thrown at the performers, and which lay on the stage" (London Chronicle, 12 July).
