Event Comment: Mainpiece: By Particular Desire. At 5 went into the Pit to see Love do Kite--like him better than Bransby in that character. End Act II a Pantomime dance by children called the Lilliputian Camp: Adjutant by Miss Rogers. J. Palmer did Bounce in Harlequin's Invasion, but not as well as Bransby. When King runs off in the Dancer's scene, Rooker comes on, jumps, King not being able, having had his thigh-bone broken 2 years ago (Neville MS Diary)

Event Comment: Mainpiece: By Desire. At half past 4 went into the Pit to see Garrick do Archer a 3rd time....It is not agreeable to see Packer make love--he is oblig'd to do Aimwell, Palmer being ill....Moody does Hob pretty well, but not so well as Yates. Hartry did not do Old Hob so well as Parsons (Neville MS Diary)
