Description

Verso: Letter to Abū l-Ḥasan from Abū Ḥājī (?). In Arabic script. The sender instructs the addressee to give the bearer, Durmī al-Qirmiṭī (probably the same man from the legal document on recto), 10 irdabs of wheat and to not tarry its delivery under any circumstance. He inquires about a servant (khādim) and then goes on to report the price of an enslaved woman (jāriyya) of 13 dīnārs.
