15. [...] I, the servant of
16. your excellency, inform you—may God make your prosperity permanent!—
17. that when you departed from me {alt tr.: I departed from you}, I went to the house;
18. and the hand mill and the durra crusher were in the house. I locked
19. the house and departed and entrusted Sheikh Ḥusayn with the care
20. of the house, which he was prepared to do (lit., ‘the man said only “good,’”).
21. Qays, however, was angry and said: “He lost the house’s
22. furnishings and rent.” In fact, I, your excellency’s servant, inform you
23. that Sheikh Ḥusayn received payment of
24. the entire rent and that you have not suffered any loss
25. from the house. Therefore, when he reaches Aden and talks
26. to you, my lord, about this matter, do not accept
27. his words (as true) {alt. tr.: do not take notice of his words} nor be distressed or
28. worried by them. If you, my lord, have any {alt. tr.: Whatever, you, my lord}
29. need or require any service, honor your servant 
30. with it. To you, my lord
31. and master, and to my lord Peraḥyā—may his Rock preserve him!—the best greetings. And peace.
