From Matilda Adriana Ayrton memoirs written in 1899:
My grandmother Ayrton and our cousin, the orphan child of her only daughter, Matilda, married to a Mr. Cater, who held a good legal office but left no provision for his three children, came, I think, to live with us. We rebelled against her wish to make us quiet and we could not help laughing when she exclaimed, "Julia! those children will tear your eyes out when they're older." Victoire, our cousin, stammered, and Johnny began to stammer ......... My grandmother Ayrton went to Kingston, Surrey, where we went afterwards occasionally to see her. Frederick, her much loved grandson, ofter stayed there and did whatever he liked.
