museum

Submitted by edpope on

museum 20.1.1797 / 25.1.1797

These two entries should surely be added to those starting on 11.8.1802 event-tagged in the GD website to the British Museum. Although the first 3 entries in 1802 stated British Museum in full, Godwin soon reverted to writing simply Museum and only used the full form 4 more times out of hundreds of visits
