Unknown £30 Unknown Mr. Bland off B. of Exchange of £100 DL paid George Bland several times between 1795 and 1798 in an unclear manner, with Dorothea Jordan (Bland's sister) and a Mr Jackson also involved. BD vol. 2, p. 161 refers to loans of £100 and £70 made by DL to Bland, yet the payment records of 25 January and 1 February 1798 show the theatre paying Bland interest (rather than vice versa) and paying Jackson for noting Bland's bill.
