Comments:
"[Mrs Billington] possessed not the feeling to give touching expression, even when she sung with the utmost delicacy and consummate skill. Her face was handsome, and her countenance full of good humour, but it was incapable of change, and she was no actress" (Mount-Edgcumbe, 93-94). Receipts: #223 5s. 6d. (221.18.6; 1.7.0)
