'  To delete a message, we'll need either the SequenceNumber or MessageId.
'  When the message was peek-locked, the SequenceNumber and MessageId of the locked message
'  was returned in the HTTP response header named "BrokerProperties, which contained
'  JSON such as the following:
'  
'  	{
'  	  "DeliveryCount": 1,
'  	  "EnqueuedSequenceNumber": 3000004,
