7.5.1807 dine at Philips's, w. Salvo, Fraser

6.5.1807 call on Polhill

The only mention of Polhill in Godwin's diary. Godwin had received a letter that morning from Lord Holland (Bodleian MS Abinger c.10 f.37-8) concerning Godwin's attempts to raise a loan, so this call may have been relevant to that project.

2.5.1807 breakfast at Coleridge's, w. Pasley

Charles William Pasley (DNB 1780-1861). See Letters of S T Coleridge. Godwin was lucky to catch him off duty between the battle of Maida July 1806 and the siege of Copenhagen August 1807

24.4.1807 call on Lamb (w. M(ary) J(ane), Nicholson (adv. Hayward), & Sloper; adv.

11.4.1807 M(arshall) calls for Adkins / 11.8.1807 Bow Street, w. Corbet & T(homas) T(urner), warrant ; Jo. H(odgkins) calls : Adkins calls : M(arshall) & T(homas) T(urner) dine : H(odgkins) & Adkins call ; Bow Street

The second entry above seems likely to have been Harry Adkins, police officer Bow-street public office (Holdens directory 1811 and in Old Bailey proceedings 1809 to 1819). So the first entry quite likely referred to him as well. A Harry Adkins was later keeper of Warwick gaol (1830s & 1840s)

1.4.1807 call on Philips (adv. Cobb) / 10.8.1807 Cobb sends / 20.2.1809 call on Cobb / 18.11.1815 call on Cobb, cheese-monger / 29.10.1828 sup at Hodget's, w. Rhodes Cobb

12.10.1901 chaise w. Philips's : call on Munday, Oxford / 1.4.1807 dcall on Philips; adv. Munday / 10.4.1813 write to Munday / 5.6.1813 call on Munday, Oxford / 1.9.1823 call on Munday

8.3.1807 dine at Plunket's, w. Dolland

The only example of this name in Godwin's diary. Nearly all the Dollands in directories were of the Dollond optician family (DNB per.1750-1871), very often spelt Dolland. Old Bailey 15.2.1804 Barnard Dollond cheese and ham dealer 89 Strand. The guests at Plunket's were mostly Irish and the name Dolland was not unknown in Ireland but I found no likely candidates.

3.3.1807 at mrs Hippisley's, w. Wolsey / 24.2.1811 Wolsey calls / 25.2.1811 again / 18.3.1811 again

Despite the fame of Cardinal Wolsey this was a rare surname in Godwin's day. Wolseley was more common, and as the guests at mrs Hippisley's were of Irish connections, Sir William Wolseley (1779-1819) 3rd baronet of Carlow who died unmarried, is a possible, but I could find very little about him, and he seems less likely for the three calls in 1811.

3.3.1807 Rossewens at mrs Hippisley's

Perhaps an Irish name but I found no trace of it in that spelling
