Sir.
The enclosed Certificate was probably sent to my brother James, through mistake. It does not belong to him, and he requests me to return it to you. It may be that a Certificate intended for my brother has been addressed to the person for whom this was intended; and so in like manner with the one I returned a few days since. Will you have the goodness to make the enquiry?
