Letter – Thomas Wentworth Beaumont to Diana Beaumont – 7 Sep 1819
Morpeth Sept. 7. 1819
My dear Mother,
I shall be delighted to see you at Dissington on the 20th or any day after that which may suit you. A few friends William Grey, <Bell> &c are coming to me on Thursday the 16th, who will probably leave me on Saturday or Sunday; If Sir William Scott stays in the North till that time he has also promised to see the inside of a Bachelor’s House, as he has paid a visit to most of the married Men in the neighbourhood of Newcastle and
Letter – Thomas Wentworth Beaumont to Diana Beaumont – 22 Sep 1819
Dissington. Wednesday night.
My dear Mother,
You will already have heard from Thomas the answer that he received from Mr. Hodson on Monday – When his letter reached me on Tuesday with the information, you will imagine that I was very far from being pleased, <&> had left Bywell without a positive acceptance <or refusal> - Hodson had in fact gained his object if the <matter> was <allowed> to remain in the <state> Thomas had left it, as he could then sel

General report of the Mines Michelmas 1819
In the Teesdale District the general prospects continue to be most flattering and even improve, as we proceed in opening out the Mines Lodgesyke is excellent, and is now Working in regular lengths to the greatest advantage Coldberry has also greater appearance of becoming a valuable Mine than it ever had before. In driving the Trial Level, we have Cut a Cross Vein which appears likely to be of service; but in the Confusion of the junction, through

I have now to thank you for allowing me to act according to my own discretion in this purchase - <In> reflecting upon past circumstances I feel convinced that the estate c[oul]d not have been purchased for a less sum, & I do not think that it could have been obtained even at that price in any other manner <than> that which was most fortunately <adopted> - It is the general opinion that <Cusack> w[oul]d not have hesitated to have paid what Hodson asked.

Letter – Thomas Wentworth Beaumont to Diana Beaumont – 11 Oct 1819
Dissington. Oct. 11. 1819
My dear Mother,
As I find that Hardy has taken up the case of the workhouse that Horsington pulled down at Wybsey, I should be very glad to see his letter to you upon the subject as well as Mr. Wilson’s. I believe that is the name of Miss <Currer’s> relation –
Will you enclose them to me as soon as you have time, for I <fear H.>, of whose discretion I have a very low opinion, has led you into a scrape – I will write to you again a

Letter – Thomas Wentworth Beaumont to Diana Beaumont – 19 Oct 1819
Blagdon. Oct 19. 1819 –
My dear Mother,
Although I have not yet received Mr. Wilson’s letter, Horsington’s affords sufficient ground for enquiry into the circumstances attending the pulling down the workhouse at Whibsey. Does not it appear to you very <singular>, that he should never have thought of touching it until it was so near being <c….d> in, that if he delayed a single day, you would have no longer had the power of doing so, <and> by his own stat
Letter – Thomas Wentworth Beaumont to Diana Beaumont – 24 Oct 1819
Dissington Hall. Oct- 24 – 1819
My dear Mother,
I have now to acknowledge the receipt of three letters from you, that arrived I think by successive Posts – I am sorry that Horsington has has [sic] been able to convince you of his own propriety of conduct – Mr. Wilsons assertion that your consent, by which of course he means your Agent’s, was asked is certainly a sufficient ground for you to have an enquiry made of the trustees by whose direction the <barn> was e

Dissington Hall. Oct. 31. 1819
My dear Mother,
I have received from Fenwick, to whom it was sent by Mr. Pearson, the heads of the agreement as proposed by Hodson - There is hardly a clause in it which is not liable to an objection, or which will not require an explanation – I have referred that part of it which regards the land to Thomas, & that which respects the forms of law to Fenwick; When I have their answers & seen them both at Newcastle, which I propose doing o
