For some reason these sup entries are underlined in the GD website as if they were an unidentified person. They simply mean that Godwin wherever he was and whoever he was with carried on and had supper there

Lefevre

Lefevres 15.10.1804 adv at Holcroft's / 28,10.1804 Lefevre adv at Hts / 30.11.1804 again

Charles Shaw Lefevre Hist of Parl 1759-1823 was MP for Reading from 1802 to 1820 and by 1808 he had moved from being a supporter of Pitt via Addington and Sidmouth to voting for Burdett's reform motion in a minority of 15.  Sidmouth considered he had been "bitten by a popularity" at Reading where the reform movement was strong but I note he voted for Graham in Westminster in 1802, so it's not impossible he was friendly with Holcroft in 1804, but it seems an improbable identification
