Event Comment: Afterpiece: By Particular Desire of the Cherokee Chiefs. [These six Chiefs had recently come to England to enlist aid in their dispute with Mexico (London Chronicle, 2 Nov.). The playbill retains Bannister as Robin Hood, but "Previous to the curtain's drawing up...Farley walked forward and apologized for the absence of Bannister, informing the audience that their favourite singer was suddenly indisposed, and that Davies had undertaken to play Bannister's part" (Diary, 13 Nov.). Davies's part of Scarlet was probably acted by Farley (see 18 Nov.).] Receipts: #201 17s. 6d. (187.5.0; 14.12.6)
