I have not set on to sketch yet but this will give you some little idea of its beauty.
[extract of letter showing J.S.C Sketch of Castle Acre Priory.]
Please to present my most respectful compliments to Mrs. Turner and to Mr., Mrs. and Miss Hancock - not forgetting our companions at Cove Hithe - or my sweet Prince Dawson. What with the physiognemy of Miss H. - and the terrifying look of a Turner I expect to be completely turned inside out.
