Mrs B. Dec 1824
I have to thank you for your very polite attention and handsome present of the P. Forte at Hexham Abbey. I did myself the honor to call upon you last week but you were from home; otherwise I should have had the opportunity of more particularly inpressing the obligation you placed me under.

I did not receive your note until today at home consequently some time after I had sent the cart to bring away the Piano Forte. I feel sorry I was not sooner made acquainted that the instrument was in use as I should have had great pleasure in accommodating Mrs <....> with the loan of it or indeed any friend of Mr Lees for a short period. The instrument was Mrs Beaumonts but a short time ago I applied to purchase it when she very politely made me a present of it. Had Mrs <

Letter – Benjamin Johnson to Thomas Wentworth Beaumont – 28 Dec 1824
Mr B. Dec 28th 1824
We had a tremendous flood here on Christmas day which has done much damage to the lands bordering the river. Mr Harbottle on his farm has suffered to a considerable extent. The water still covers a considerable part of the flat land below the house ... The water was upon the lawn here but I prevented it getting to the house by making a small embankment to the west.

Madam,
When I wrote to you last on the subject of Messrs. Claytons letter, I wrote to you in haste & to save that days Post that you might have the earliest account of what was going on. I omitted to mention that in all the searches I have had occasion to make in my time I never met with any presentment of the nature of that for which Messrs. Clayton propose to search and I never heard my late

Diary – James Losh – 23 Jan 1825
I dined and staid all night at Bradley with Mr. Beaumont (his brother Edwd. was with him). My opinion of Mr. Beaumont is unchanged. Had he been a person of moderate fortune and properly educated, he would have been an amiable and accomplished man, whereas now he is evidently (tho’ not without some good qualities), the mere slave of his passions and his habits. Mr. Ed. Beaumont is sickly and feeble looking but seems to be a pleasing young man.

Beaumont was with me a long time on election business.

Mr Bird March 30th 1825
I should have been most happy to have seen you and Mr Wm Beaumont to have taken up your quarters with me but at present we are all in confusion from workmen in the house. The female servants however are all at Bradley and the house then in order to receive Mr G B and his bride. I fear Mr Wm will find fishing a cold amusement and the woodcock I should suppose are all gone.

Thomas Strutt has requested me to write to you to say he will be glad to accept your offer to go to Gummerston and take charge of the wood fences and game but should you since have altered your determination as to the appointment … he will feel much obliged to you to take a house for him in the neighbourhood of <Hoyland>. Mr Beaumont has not taken any further notice as to his leaving, nor has any new gamekeeper arrived. I have received a letter from Mr B indeed h

Sir
As agent to Colonel Beaumont, owner & an extensive occupier of Lead Mines I have learnt with the utmost alarm that it is intended to lower, almost to nothing, the duty now payable on the importation of Foreign Lead and Ore. – as this measure appears to [replaced: me] us fraught with injury to the Lead Mines and to the numerous people now usefully employed in parts of the Country which admit of n
