[In mainpiece the playbill retains Palmer Jun. as the Officer, but "An apology was made by Palmer for his Son who (as he said), not knowing of the sudden change [of play], was gone to the country, but the son thought proper to give his father the lie, by appearing in the boxes, a few minutes after, with a girl. Farley performed his part, and the audience seemed rejoiced at the change" (Thespian Magazine, Oct. 1792, p.102). Afterpiece in place of Katharine and Petruchio, advertised on playbill of 31 Aug.
