Description

Letter in Judaeo-Arabic. Fragment (piece from the right side). Mentions a jahbadh (tax official); al-shaliṭ (another government term, corresponding to Arabic sulṭān?); "this year"; the sender's distress (talāfī); meeting with someone's son. Quite damaged; difficult to understand any more than this.
