From Edmund Jennings Lee Jr., 23 Oct. 1826
Recipient
I have just returned from Clarksburg while there I examined the record in the case of Cresap vs. M Lean, which I find is complete. The six months having elapsed within which it should have been sent up, & as it is uncertain whether it will soon be sent, as there is some misunderstanding between Cresap & his Council in relation to the costs of appeal— I have procured & herewith send you, a certificate in order that you may have the appeal dismissed.
