Letter – Thomas Richard Beaumont to John Erasmus Blackett – 22 Apr 1800
April 22nd 1800
I have made all the enquiry I can, not only at my Agents but with many mercantile Houses, and they say there has been a rumour about the calling in of the Silver but they don't think there is any foundation for it. However, I think that Messrs Surtees ought to furnish more gold, and less Silver. I am happy to say Mrs Beaumont & the Children are all very well. She unites with me in best respects.
I am My dear Sir
