Event Comment: "[Henderson] stands before me with the muster of his recruits legible in his eye, and I hear the fat and chuffy tones by which he added humour to the ludicrous terms of the poet's description . . . The bursts of laughter he excited by this, which he did not hurry, but seemed mentally to enjoy, as the images rose in succession, were beyond measure delightful. He made his audience for the time as intelligent as himself" (Boaden, Siddons, I, 124-25). Receipts: #170 15s. 6d. (168/8/6; 2/7/0)
