Event Comment: The last Night of this Season. [On this night Bannister was also acting at dl; on his arrival at the hay he made the following apology, "The instant the opera was finished at Drury Lane I hastened with all possible expedition to execute my duty." But the performance of the 3rd piece was so long delayed that the final curtain did not fall until 12 o'clock (Morning Herald, 17 Sept.).
