Description

Fragment of a letter in Arabic script. The ends of 3 lines are preserved. Skilled hand, unclear if mercantile or official. Includes the phrase "لا تجد في الوقت في البلد عند وكلا ال . . . " which sounds more mercantile. But the large "al-ʿabd" in the next line is more suggestive of a report or petition.
