31.5.1808 call on Northcote; adv. E Cowper / 1.9.1817 again

Clearly a long term acquaintance of James Northcote DNB 1746-1831 artist. I considered a mistress of the bachelor Northcote but decided it was more probably Peter Leopold &c, the 5th Earl Cowper 1778-1837, (succeeded 1799) who perhaps enjoyed Northcote's famous conversation.
