Musicians (Band) £8 4s 8d Internal Music the 20th. Inst
Loan Repayments (as Debtor) £7 10s External Paid Mr Cox on Acct. of Int. in full Probably a payment to Robert Kilbye Cox, relating to his "15th Share" paid on 8 January 1787. Survey of London: Volume 35, "The Killigrew and Davenant Patents", illuminates that payment. John Abraham Fisher and Elizabeth Jane Fisher (née Powell) had conditionally assigned 1/15 of their quarter of the Covent Garden property (i.e. 1/60 of the total) to Robert Kilbye Cox in 1780. Apparently Cox then assigned his rights in this share to Harris. However, this payment would suggest that Cox still had some claim to this share as late as 1787, unnoticed by Survey of London. Covent Garden had also received £14 1s 6d from a Mr Cox for no specified reason on 9 June 1786, but that seems too low and untidy a number to have constituted a loan.
