Several notes from Kenyon to Sumner are preserved; one from 4 Harley Place, of June 15, 1838, saying: You are hardly a stranger among us; you were hardly a stranger when you had been here only three days; another, inviting him to meet Southey; another inviting him to dine, Jan. 19, 1839; and another regretting a previous engagement of Sumner, and adding, I g
