In the following year, Hussey's booth again stood in George Yard, and presented _Tamerlane the Great_, with singing and "several curious equilibres on the slack rope by Mahomet Achmed Vizaro Mussulmo, a Turk just arrived from Constantinople, who not only balances without a pole, but also plays a variety of excellent airs on the violin when on the slack rope, which none can perform in England but himself." Though said to have just arrived from Constantinople, this Turk was probably the same that had performed at Bartholomew Fair three years previously. Warner disconnected himself from Fawkes this year, and joined Yeates and Mrs. Lee, whose booth stood in the same position as before, presenting the _Siege of Troy_, and an entertainment of singing and dancing. Adjoining it stood a new show, owned by Godwin and Reynolds, with "a curious collection of wax-work figures, being the richest and most beautiful in England;" and a panoramic view of the world, "particularly an accurate and beautiful prospect of Bergen-op-Zoom, together with its fortifications and adjacent forts, and an exact representation of the French besieging it, and the Dutch defending it from their batteries, etc." The movements of this exhibition were effected by clock-work. Opposite the Greyhound was another new venture, Chettle's, in which a pantomimic entertainment called _Frolicsome Lasses_ was presented, with singing and dancing between the acts, and a display of fireworks at the end. The only theatrical booth at Southwark Fair this year seems to have been Mrs. Lee's, in which the entertainments were the same as at Bartholomew Fair. In Mermaid Lane was exhibited "the strange and wonderful monstrous production of Nature, a sea-elephant head, having forty-six teeth, some of them ten inches long, fluted, and turning up like a ram's horn." The shows increased in number and variety, though the theatrical booths could no longer boast of the great names of former years. George Yard was occupied in 1748 by a new theatre, owned by Bridges, Cross, Barton, and Vaughan, from the theatres royal, who availed of the interest created by recent events to present a new historical drama called _The Northern Heroes_, followed by dancing and a farce called _The Volunteers_, founded on the 'Adventures of Roderick Random.' Smollett was now running Fielding hard in the race of fame, and the new managers were keen in turning his popularity to account for their own interests. This booth was the most important one in the fair, and the charge for admission ranged from sixpence to half-a-crown. Hussey's booth, at which the prices ranged from sixpence to two shillings, stood opposite the gate of the hospital. The entertainments consisted of the comedy of _The Constant Quaker_, singing and dancing, including "a new dance called Punch's Maggot, or Foote's Vagaries," and a pantomime called _Harlequin's Frolics_.
