Godwin sees Wolcot several times a year from 1795 until Wolcot's death, with the exception of the early 1810s.
In December 1807, John Wolcot (1738-1819) was the target of a notorious court case for ‘criminal conversation’ (seduction) of his landlord’s wife. Wolcot was then seventy and the case was thrown out when he pleaded that he had no fire left! Godwin was on good terms with him and may have commissioned work from him before he eventually went blind in 1814.
The entries for Wolcot are consistent and the death-date Godwin gives is one day off from that of the DNB (Godwin records it on the 13th Jan. 1819 and the DNB as the 14th)
