deliver said sample to the owner or his agent, with a certificate
.stating the date of the inspection, the warehouse mark and
number of said hogshead, the weight thereof, and net weight of

consequence of said tobacco having been wet or otherwise in-

duplicate certificate marked as such, to be issued to the party
entitled thereto.

66. If the owner or his agent shall return the samples and
certificates hereinbefore provided for, and desire to have new
ones, the inspector shall untie said original samples, detach
therefrom, and cancel the label affixed thereto, and draw new
samples in the same way in which he is hereinbefore required
