Varland

Varland 10.2.1795 at King's.

Varland was a character in Cumberland's play The West Indian. Since the actor John Quick was famous for this role and appeared again at King's on 31.3.1795, Wolcot being present both times, it is possible that Varland referred to him. The name was very rare in England though slightly commoner in France, Norway &c
