31.7.1795 general Hull at John Frank Newton's
There were no generals named Hull in the British forces at that time but the American general William Hull 1753-1825 (American National Biography) according to one report visited Europe about then. He lived at Newton, Massachusetts where he built a brewery in 1799 run by an English brewer, Newton the town may have had connections with John Frank Newton'sfamily. Another American general was at Newton's on 30.12.1795 (see Marshall, John)
Hume 3.8.1800 at (Castle) Brown's
GD website has coded this to Joseph Hume DNB 1767-1844 but there's no reason to think he was in Ireland in 1800. Perhaps Gustavus Hume Dict Irish Biog 1732-1812 surgeon or his sons Thomas MD 1769-1850, Arthur, Gustavus & Travers. Sub 1798 to D R O'Conor Travers Hume DD Glebe Hill, Ardee, co. Louth. Rev Travers Hume = Oct 1787 Miss Balaguirere in Merrion Sq Dublin / Dublin Trades 1797 Arthur Hume agent Dublin Castle
Joseph Hume DNB 1767-1844. Mentioned 540 times in Godwin's diary, only exceeded by Godwin's second wife, his two children, James Marshall, Thomas Holcroft, Charles Lamb, Thomas Turner, David Booth and John Fenwick. The DNB knows very little about him and most of their article concerns a practical joke he and Lamb played on William Hazlitt. He was born 9.4.1764 in Bishopsgate Street, London son of John Hume and Sarah Weatherly, who had been married on 14.3.1758 at St Augustine Watling St, London as bachelor and spinster. The births of their three children John, Ann and Joseph were…

18.1.1792 Huniades.
John Huniades was a Hungarian general who defeated the Turks and died in 1456. Godwin mentioned him in St Leon. By the time he wrote St Leon he was reading the 12 volume 1797 edition of Gibbon's Decline and Fall (te0884) but Gibbon was the most likely source of information on Huniades so he may have referred to an earlier edition at this point

16.3.1789 Hunter at Miss Williams' and 11.3.1791 (where it is wrongly coded to her husband John) as the 'Mes' makes it clear it was female both times. Anne Hunter DNB 1742/3-1821. In Godwin's 1796 list for 1791 and in the 1794 version as mrs J Hunter, which suggests that the 1789 entry might have been her daughter Agnes. The 1796 list entry has not been coded to her person record on the GD website

There are 5 entries in the DNB for Doctor Hunters in 1798, but Alexander H 1729?-1809, Andrew H 1744-1809 and John H 1745-1837 were more likely to have been found in their respective professional spheres of York, Edinburgh and St Andrews.

According to the plaque outside the Kings Arms 23 Poland St Henry Hurle founded the Ancient Order of Druids there on 29.11.1781. I don't know of any contemporary record of this, it probably rests on a statement in a Druid magazine some years later but perhaps within living memory of the event. (see Ronald Hutton, Blood and Mistletoe p133). The publican would probably have been Alexander Warren who had married on 15.9.1781 Elizabeth, widow of the previous publican William Arthur who died in 1779. / Henry Hurle of St Luke = St…
