call on Lord Mayor 1.6.1805 / 20.6.1805 again / 10.7.1817 again
In Godwin's letter to James Wollstonecraft of 5.9.1805 (Bodleian Abinger c9 f34v) he wrote "Ball I have got rid of by the intervention of the Lord Mayor". Ball (qv) was a tenant of Primrose Street and Godwin saw him on 23.1.1805 and 1,2,1805, both before James Wollstonecraft last saw Godwin before leaving for the West Indies. The Lord Mayor of London in 1804/5 was Peter Perchard, it's not clear if Godwin would have spoken to him personally. The Lord Mayor in 1816/7 was Matthew Wood.

sleep at Stump's 2.4.1805
Godwin took tea at Charlotte Smith DNB 1749-1806 at Tilford, Surrey then slept at Stump's so this was probably the name of an innkeeper or neighbour. John Moon Stump son of Thomas & Elizabeth was baptised at Peper Harow 23.9.1798 a couple of miles from Tilford. There was also a Thomas Stump & Mary in nearby Farnham and a Thomas Stump & Ann in nearby Godalming
