Please help! Quest stuck in misc quests!

[pavel2.jelinek]

PLEASE HELP! I have a stuck entry in journal, says "Read the message from Leigelf". What happened to me: I did the Dark Brotherhood's quest to kill Beitild (Leigelf's spouse) and I probably at some point got a message from a courier from him (I killed her of course) saying thanx or whatever but I must have sell that letter somewhere / I was getting rid of junk books as I usually do. Now that quest is "stuck" in my misc quests and I dunno how to get rid of that.. I would use a certain command but i looked everywhere and could not get the ID for that misc quest. Please help!!! PS: a ID if I just had an ID of that letter i would spawn it in my inventory and read it! It would (as i think it would) fix my issue!

I'm reposting this for you here.
the note itself doesn't matter - if it was important for the quest, you would not have been able to remove it from your inventory - so don't worry about that. As to the quest staying in the miscellaneous sections and not being cleared - that happens sometimes. But, the place to go to ensure that you did all that was needed to complete the quest is here:

Apparently the quest is not cleared until you return and collect your reward from Nazir at the Santuary

Checked in xEdit. The steps in the quest are:
kill Beitild
report back to Nazir

The note itself is not needed to complete the Quest stages.
