                        CERTIFICATION OF PERIODIC REPORT

I, Bruce Cosgrove, certify that:

1.       I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB of The Saint James
         Company;

2.       Based  on my  knowledge,  this  report  does  not  contain  any  untrue
         statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary
         to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances  under which
         such  statements  were made, not misleading  with respect to the period
         covered by this report;


3.       Based on my knowledge,  the financial  statements,  and other financial
         information  included in this  report,  fairly  present in all material
         respects the financial condition,  results of operations and cash flows
         of the small business  issuer as of, and for, the periods  presented in
         this report;


4.       The  small  business  issuer's  other  certifying  officer  and  I  are
         responsible for  establishing and maintaining  disclosure  controls and
         procedures  (as defined in Exchange Act Rules  13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e))
         for the small business issuer and have:


     a.   Designed  such  disclosure  controls  and  procedures,  or caused such
          disclosure   controls  and   procedures  to  be  designed   under  our
          supervision to ensure that material  information relating to the small
          business  issuer,  including its  consolidated  subsidiaries,  is made
          known to us by others within those entities,  particularly  during the
          period in which this report is being prepared;

     b.   [Paragraph  omitted in  accordance  with SEC  transition  instructions
          contained  in  SEC  Release   34-47986  as  extended  in  SEC  Release
          34-52492.]

     c.   Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business issuer's  disclosure
          controls and procedures  and presented in this report our  conclusions
          about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures,  as
          of the  end of the  period  covered  by  this  report  based  on  such
          evaluation; and

     d.   Disclosed  in this  report any change in the small  business  issuer's
          internal  control over financial  reporting  that occurred  during the
          small business issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the small business
          issuer's  4th  quarter  in the  case of an  annual  report)  that  has
          materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
          small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting; and

5.       The  small  business  issuer's  other  certifying  officer  and I  have
         disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
         financial  reporting,  to the small business  issuer's auditors and the
         audit  committee of the small business  issuer's board of directors (or
         persons performing the equivalent functions):

          a.   All  significant  deficiencies  and  material  weaknesses  in the
               design or operation of internal control over financial  reporting
               which  are  reasonably  likely  to  adversely  affect  the  small
               business  issuer's  ability to  record,  process,  summarize  and
               report financial information; and

          b.   Any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves management or
               other employees who have a significant role in the small business
               issuer's internal control over financial reporting.
