Mr Beaumont		May 1st 1823

… enclosing an estimate and sketch of a stone bridge which you can compare with the one sent by Mr <....> I shall enclose with my accounts a letter I received from Mr Swinburne asking the loan of some <....> belonging to the Band of your Regiment.  In my answer ... I said that you had declined a similar application last year as you wished the Band to meet and practice regularly.

The bridge was to be the present one over the Tyne at Bywell downstream from the Hall
