27.1.1810 Guildhall, Didier

Bankrupts Peter Didier & William Tebbett of St James-st booksellers, January 27 at eleven at Guildhall. They specialised in children's games and children's books in English, French & Italian. Strange that Godwin hadn't noted the name before as it was his line of business and he may have been a creditor
