REYNOLDS, the dramatist, has stated, that
during his theatrical career, he admitted gratis into Covent-
' garden Theatre above 15,000 persons, who evidently con-
sidered the accommodation paper more as a right than a
favour, and that the only token of orderly gratitude be
ever received was from a pastry-cook's boy, who, for a
! double gallery admission, presented him with a raspberry
puff and a little pigeon pie.
