Event Comment: 3rd piece: Not acted these 3 years [acted 10 July 1794]. [In 2nd piece the playbill retains Fawcett as Gregory Gubbins, but "An apology for Fawcett, whose character (Gregory Gubbins) was filled by Wathen, occasioned a general murmur" (Monthly Magazine, July 1796, p. 494). It also assigns the Corporal to Wathen (1st appearance in that character). The part was probably acted by Burton, as on 13 June.
