To the painter Augustus Wall Callcott (1779-1844) about his sisters, who are looking for a place to stay: "My sisters, who are now with me, and somewhat undetermined as to their alternate place of residence, have an impression that they should like Kensington, or its neighbourhood as a temporary place of abode, until they are permanently fixed. Can you give me any information or advice on the subject? Their plan would be, for the present, to lodge merely. If you happen to know of any place where they could be accommodated, you will oblige me much by writing me a line to inform me [...]".
