( I have not seen it in my SSL > documents). This is alert message. This message informs server of some error/warning send from client to server. After exchange of ChangeCipherSpec alert message are encrypted (as in your example) and based on this dump is hard to say why client sends this Alert. When alert message is unencrypted it has length of 7 bytes (5- header, 2-alert data).
