Form letter from the community of Hebron. In Hebrew. Dated: 5539 AM, which is 1778/79 CE. The name Refa'el Ḥannuka is filled in in big letters; he may be the addressee, and he may be located in Istanbul. The letter describes the machinations of the oppressors of the Jews and how they obtained a firman to impose a taqsīṭ(?). The community has sent Eliyyahu Lahka(?) as their shaliaḥ, and if he does not receive enough money to bring back, they will perish.
