Hence correct sentence would be; This letter enclosed a signed affidavit and a carbon copy of his request to our main office.
If there is any discrepancy than come up with proof.Hope it will fix the issue.Tuck it!
DEAR URSULA
the writer in the second sentence has stressed the enclosure of the papers. you cannot prove it wrong by any means. you can consult with someone expert in English grammar. there is only one mistake in the sentence and that is of the singular form put in place of a plural form.
regards. any feedback will be highly appreciated.
