Mrs. Beaumont is certainly not a pleasant person to do business with, but she has many good and some kind qualities and I do not doubt by steadiness and a moderate degree of attention, to get on vastly well in my new situation.   Her principal agent in London appears to me to be a good man of business and I found all his accounts clear and very regular.   Indeed, Mr. Hopkins has been brought up and occupied all his life, in business connected with lead and I am disposed to think very well indeed both of him and of the clerks whom he employs in his office.
