Tickets are sold at the London coffee-house, at Mr.
Hawkins's in Walnut-Street, by Mr. Broadbelt at Mr. Black's
near the theatre, and at Mrs. Scott's in Lombard-Street, at
which last office, places in the boxes may be taken. Box
7s. 6d Pit 5s. Gallery 3s.
Mr. Broadbelt had declined taking a benefit on account of
the heat of the weather, and the great expences of the
house, for which reason Miss Hallam's was advertised for the
last: But his friends having since assured him of their
interest, and represented to him the great reputation The
Gamester is in with the public, would probably be of some
service to him, he has altered his resolution.
