[Father]’s second Wife to whom he was married on the 12th October 1843 was (a widow) Mrs. Mary Cutter. aged 48 – A warper – superior branch of weaving ‘supports herself, is good looking, refined, intelligent in Scripture knowledge etc. descended from the French Refugees. Her Brother Mr. Peel [Joseph Peet] is a clergyman at Travancore, a considerable author. She occupies a large top floor; The Jacks and Mills take up much room. The access to it is uninviting and the whole is mean, but she is a prize.’   (Lister, Letters 1.427).
