Description

End of a late letter in Hebrew from Avraham R[...?] (alt. reading: Meʾīr Sarāgo[sī?]). The sender describes how he successfully made a match for the daughter of [...] with Shemuel Brodoy (?), and the wedding took place on such-and-such date, and now the addressee is urged to pay promptly for the service. The name Meʾīr Sarāgosī is attested in a variety of 16th-century fragments, but the paleography in this letter may be later: e.g. T-S AS 202.414 (PGPID 22683) and ENA 2727.47 + Halper 368 (PGPID 19648). Requires further examination.
