      Aug 6th 92 –

Dear Sir,

I am favoured with yours, and we have signed both the deputations, and enclosed them; I have the pleasure to say that Mrs. Beaumont performed her journey very well, & I have got a very comfortable house, and everything as I could wish -  In a letter from Mr. Skelton this Morning, he informs me of Mr. Westcomb’s claim, I should imagine he [can] not make good his pretensions, I have given [missing: possibly ‘instructions’] for every necessary precaution to be <taken>. I purpose leaving Town on Wednesday Morning, and as soon after my being at Bretton as possible will set forwards for Newcastle – We have not any thoughts of changing our Name. I hope about the 16 inst to be at Newcastle – Mrs. Beaumont unites with me in best Compliments to yourself & Captn. & Mrs.  Collingwood – I am Dear Sir

Your much obligd. hum. Servant

Tho Rd Beaumont.
