I am favored with your Letter of 14 inst & have given Mr Crawhall a Ticket for fifty Casks of Litharge which he will lose no time in shipping for you. – the price of this Litharge to be determined by my next Sale of Lead. Having yet nearly 30,000ps of Lead to deliver, which will require five or six months to complete, and having also, recently sold to Cox, Poyser & Co 3500ps at £23.5 & £22.5 I do not, under the c
Diary – James Losh – 17 Jun 1824
It appears that Beaumont’s errand when he last came into Northd. was to challenge E. Swinburne for contradicting the assertions in his speech at Hexham. All this shews the great error on the part of the Swinburnes in not shortly denying the truth of those assertions in the same paper in which they appeared.

..Every person who has been made acquainted with the correspondence is fully convinced that Sir J Swinburn has been guilty of a gross mistatement and are at a loss to know how he means next to proceed. Every step he has taken from first to last has tended to defeat his own object and his friends now admit that he has mislead them and are all <....> to see how he will set about to extricate himself. Mr Bird seems not to wish the correspondence to gain great public

Mr Beaumont July 9th 1824
Mr Edward Swinburn has been very unwell for some weeks but he has now got out again. I believe he has had a slight fever from taking cold but the wits call it the Summer fever ... I have got the cupola down and partly covered in ... I shall next get on with the inside work of the new kitchen and lower the present stacks of chimneys.

I was not able to state in my last letter the day on which the judge will enter Newcastle. I rode over there yesterday and learnt that it will be on Thursday the 19th of August. I hope nothing will prevent you being in Northumberland at that time as considerable disappointment has been felt by your friends that you were not at the Races.

..you are determined at any rate to take the dam down. (As to the absolute necessity of this; I am aware your opinion is at variance with my own as I have every reason to believe should a bridge be erected and the stone taken from the south side of the fish lock to build it with it would give the River so much more scope that no flood <....> be apprehended and would save greatest and <.... ornament> to the place. Thos Strutt says there are a few grouse

The wine may be <....> immediately if you think proper but I think it would be better to delay it until Spring as I shall be obliged to leave the house this winter to enable the workmen to get on with the alterations inside. There is at present a house at Corbridge to let and I shall thank you to inform me ... if you would wish me to engage it and remove my family from Newbiggin to it as the seaside is dreadfully cold at this season.

Alnwick Oct 27, 1824
My dear Brougham,
Your letter reached me at the moment when I was setting out for this place. I however sent immediately about your parcel and I now learn from my clerk that it was forwarded last Friday and so I trust that it reached you safe and sound.
I can only repeat that I am much obliged to Lord Rosslyn for his kind attention, which, I have no doubt, contributed mainly to Baldwin's success. Pray be so good as to tell him so or

In answer to your letter ... there is not any cottage on the south side of the river in which the gamekeeper you purpose sending could be placed ... If Thos Strutt was to remove back to Broomley two rooms may be found in the village until a house is built. Is it your intention to let Thos Strutt continue to take charge of the dogs and retain the deputation or to place them under the care of the new gamekeeper. I fear Thos Strutts disposition will often cause dissention betw

I am sorry I am not likely to see you here before next Easter as it appears (if current reports are to be believed) that there is a strong party forming to oppose you at the next election but I cannot find that any individual has positively come forward to offer himself. I think it necessary to make one observation, that in several instances lately I have heard it stated by some who I am convinced are your friends that they think you must be indifferent about it or

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 <

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.

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
