Here is a letter written in the hand of Harcourt Vanden-Bempde-Johnstone, 1st Baron Derwent. The address on this letter is from Hackness and is dated 1878. There seems to be a couple of pencilled names on the letter including a note saying MP for Scarborough in pencil. Harcourt Vanden-Bempde-Johnstone, 1st Baron Derwent (3 January 1829 – 1 March 1916), known as Sir Harcourt Vanden-Bempde-Johnstone, 3rd Baronet , from 1869 to 1881, was a British peer and Liberal Member of Parliment. Derwent was the son of Sir John Vanden-Bempde-Jonnstone, 2nd Baronet, and Louisa Augusta Venables-Vernon-Harcourt, daughter of the Most Reverend Edward Harcourt, Archbishop of York. He succeeded as second Baronet on the death of his father in 1869 and the same year he also succeeded his father as Member of Parliment for Scarborough, a seat he held until 1880. In 1881 he was raised to the peerage as Baron Derwent , of Hackness in the North Riding of the County of York.
