Category Amount Payment Type A/c book entry Notes
Loan Repayments (as Debtor) £708 3s 9d External Paid Messrs: Batson & Co. the Ballance due on the 12th: Sepr: last
Unknown £100 Unknown Paid Richard Ford Esqr.
Unknown £95 Unknown Paid Mr: Richd: Holland £95 payments were made to Henry Holland on 14 February 1786, John Holland Esquire on 27 November 1786 and Richard Holland on 29 October 1787; presumably these payments were linked. ODNB records that the architect Henry had a brother named John, but does not mention a Richard; and no record of Henry working for Covent Garden at this time has been identified. A Richard Holland Esquire was to be paid multiple times in relation to Thomas Harris between 1788 and 1797.
Unknown £20 Unknown Paid Mr: Sutton Perhaps the goldsmith paid "for Gold & Silver Lace &ca:" on 24 November 1772, or a performer named Sutton (though BD does not record any Suttons active at Covent Garden in the 1787-88 season).
