Arthur Mowbray Esq.							Newcastle January 21. 1800

Durham



Sir

      I have no doubt My Lord Bp. Of Durham has acquainted you that he has waved his right of purchasing the Landtax of the Mines &c. in Weardale in consequence of an application to him by Col. Beaumont who intends purchasing the same.  I am desired by Mr. Blackett to request you will inform the Commissioners for the sale of the Land tax at Durham with the same if not already done, as my coming over to Durham is fixed on saturday the 25th Inst. in order to get that business completed ~  I am &c.  for TRB JC
