committee :—following report of the
" The committee have great pleasure in announcing to the
meeting, through the medium of their annual report, that
notwithstanding every vicissitude of the past season the rent
due under the lease has from time to time been duly paid up
to the Ist of August, that being the termination of the first
year of the lease, in addition to which the department of the
wardrobe has been considerably augmented in value, and an
outlay, amounting to nearly 4,000/., has also been made upon
the decoration of the theatre. With such a result the committee
have deemed it expedient, as well as an equitable measure to-
wards M. Jullien, not to avail themselves of the power contained
in the lease, of making it void, which his recent position
had empowered them to do, but inasmuch as means have
been found to carry out the covenants of the lease in other
respects, such steps might appear somewhat harsh on the
part of the committee, thereby depriving him of the chance
of redeeming himself by continuing to hold the theatre for
the remainder of the term originally granted. The posi-
tion of M. Jullien has, through his misfortunes, been before
the world, and requires little further observation from the
committee, except to express a hope that he will perse-
vere in his endeavour to render Drury-lane a means by
which the drama may be once more restored. The public
feeling at the present time appears to call for the effort, and
no doubt exists of a considerable share of their patronage
being awarded to effect so desirable an object."
The remainder of the report was of no public interest, and
after a few remarks from the proprietors present it was
adopted, and thanks having been voted to the chnirman, the
meeting adjourned.
