Pd. Hugh Dive Esqr. 1/2 [?] yrs Anny to Xmas |
If this does indeed read "1/2", it was probably a scribal error, since Dive was normally paid £31 10s on his annuities per quarter. Perhaps it was intended to read "1/q" or "1/4". |

Pd. Mrs. Longman |
Thomas Longman Esquire seems to have loaned money to Thomas Harris/Covent Garden, and/or disbursed money on the theatre's behalf; but various Longmans were involved in selling stationery, sheet music, and even musical instruments to Covent Garden, and seem to have printed playbooks for the theatre and/or bought the copyright of plays from the theatre in order to print and sell those plays for their own (the Longmans') profit. It is therefore difficult to categorise this and many other of the payments involving Thomas Longman Esquire in particular and the Longmans in general. |
