Unknown 7s 6d Unknown To Mess Green & Co. Pr acct: Milhous and Hume, in 'A Drury Lane Account Book for 1745-46', p. 81 gloss Green & Co. as "bankers", and presumably identify them with Richard Green and Norton Amber, whom they list on p. 101 as "bankers". Green and Amber were essentially DL's proprietors (along with, or backing, James Lacy), but they went bankrupt in December 1745. It is unclear why they would have been paid this small sum at the end of the month in which they went bankrupt.
Unknown 3s Unknown To Mrs. Rogers Pr bill Milhous and Hume, in 'A Drury Lane Account Book for 1745-46', p. 101 list Mrs Rogers as a house servant, and gloss her name, "laundress and seamstress?". On p. 102 they observe that she "probably did laundry or starching." But the basis of their suggestion is unclear. In the 1749-50 season, DL made several payments to a Mrs Rogers for wax and brick dust.
