The following representations are made to you from personal knowledge, as I was the scrivener of the instrument in question and the settlement agent far all the transactions referatced below. A mistake was made in that the dced indicated revenue stamps to be paid in the amount of 5438.00, which amount was in fact tendered to your o>'3xce at the time of the initial recording (Book 1832, Page 241). In &ct, the purchase price of the property from which the excise tax is calculated was 5175,000.00, resulting in an excise tax due of only 5350.00. The mistake was made due to my modification and use of a deed that was already rorrtaincd in my word processing software for property immediately adjacent (Lot 3, Davie Woods Subdivision) to that conveyed in the decd in question (Lot 4, Davie Woods Subdivision). In modifying that existing deed from the Lot 3 to Lot 4, I inadvertently failed to change the revenue stamps shown to r+a8ect the correct amount of excise tax of 5350.00; rather, I collected and paid to your office 5438.00 which was calculated based on the purchase price ofLot 3 (the Lot 3 excise stamps have been previously tendered to your ofl"ice and are not in question). Therefore, l respectfirUy request a refund of the diffa'ence between the amount acluslly tendered (5438.00) and that which should have been collected and paid (5354.00); that amount is 588.04. Should you need additional information, please let me know. Tlrarilc you in advance for your assistance in this matter. SincereiY- NORTHEN BLUE, LLp d
