Payne to Under-Secretary of State

Can you inform me how I can procure the Certificates of Marriage
& burial of John William Wignell who was killed in a coal mine
in British Columbia about this time last year. The name of
the place is
"Nanaimo."

This information is required by his relations in England & is of
great importance to them. I have enquired at Somerset House
where they referred me to your Office. If the Certificates
can be obtained thro your office please let me know the amount
of fees &c & I will remit the amount to you. I enclose a
stamped & directed envelope for reply & remain, Sir
