N[ew]Castle 14 Septemr 1826 T.H.Faber Esqr Bishop Auckland I duly received the Leases you mention which would have been sent to Bretton Hall for Col & Mrs Beaumonts signature, but that the latter being from home made it inconvenient to effect the execution of them. – Mr Horrington the Steward of Col Beaumont is now here: he returns into Yorkshire in about a fortnight, will take them with him, and see that they are regularly executed: - When returned I will do myself the pleasu

Letter – Benjamin Johnson – 16 Dec 1826

Dec 16th 1826 You would be surprised to hear that Mr Beaumont was contesting Stafford and I am sure you will be glad to hear that he had succeeded … the bells there today I understand gave him many a merry peal and from the anxiety every person shewed for his success when I was there on Wednesday I am sure there will be many a merry feast. He did not make anyone in this quarter acquainted with his intention until last Wednesday … Stafford is I believe one of the most venal boroughs in t

Diary – James Losh – 31 Jan 1827

I dined at the Mansion House with a large party, assembled in honour of and for the purpose of meeting Mr. Beaumont. I had not seen Beaumont since the election, but we seemed to be (and I have no doubt were) upon our usual intimate terms. He conducted himself adroitly and by his chearfulness and good humour pleased his friends and in some degree disarmed his enemies. My son William accompanied me and he was much amused having never before been at a large public dinner.

Diary – James Losh – 7 Feb 1827

I dined at a great dinner given in Fletcher's Long Room to Mr. Beaumont: it was numerously and upon the whole respectably attended. I spoke upon the subject of ‘Parliamentary Reform’ (having been requested to give that as a Toast) ....Beaumont spoke vigorously and certainly much better than I expected. If he would take pains and attend to business he would be a valuable member of Parliament and by no means a bad public speaker. He is very quick in his conceptions and has very cons
