Description

Letter in Judaeo-Arabic, with a few words preserved from the Arabic-script address on verso. Mentions Menaḥem, someone whom the sender thinks is stingy (wa-qad raʾaytuh bakhīl) and a plan to pay or give something to R. Yaʿaqov the judge. "And if the other one says that he doesn't owe anything, we have no other choice except that which you see fit." The name of the sender may appear at the bottom, but it is damaged. At 90 degrees there are a few cryptic words in Arabic script (al-wayl ʿalayhim?). AA. ASE.
