"1863 Nov 6, London; The artist acknowledges a note enclosing a check in payment for a recently completed picture which is for a sum greater than the amount agreed upon. "That you are pleased with it is very gratifying to me... I will beg you to accept the frame with the picture (which I had made from a design of my own, thinking you would prefer such to a casual one)." Because of the overpayment to which he feels he hasn't the slightest claim, he proposes to send the sketch which first induced his correspondent to commission the painting (Fazio's Mistress [Surtees 164])."
