Finding the Rent of Capt. Hayes's House which I had some time past possessed too high for my present Finances, I resolved on quitting it; and accordingly, I hired on the 15th. Instant, a very neat small House or Bungaloe [sic], the property of Mr. Robertson, at the rent of Forty Rupees Per Month. — It is very pleasantly and conveniently situated, being much nearer the Town of Bombay than my former one, and contains sufficient room for my accommodation. — I removed into my new Bungaloe [sic] this day. —
