Mrs Beaumont						Newcastle 7th April 1821

35 Portman Square London



Madam 

In two other Covers I beg to transmit Cash Acc[oun]t & Sales of Lead for last month; and in this, a letter from Mr Geo Crawhall, by which you will have the satisfaction to find, that the Bargains have commenced without interruption on the part of the Workmen. To the wholesome severity exercised on the last occasion, may be attributed the present peaceful progress of the Agreements for the ensuing Quarter. – I regret to state that the Lead Trade continues extremely dull. – Mr Forster, the Receiver of Greenwich Hospital died this morning. I have the Honor to remain etc

	MM
