See DNB.

Godwin meets him on several occasions with Burdett, to whom O'Connor was close. And the dates fit what we know of O'Connor's movements - including the meeting at the theatre in February 1798 as O'Connor was preparing to visit France to solicit aid for Irish insurrection.

O'Connor appears under '1796' in the 1796 diary lists, which is when he first enters the diary.
