Description

Letter addressed to a brother. In Judaeo-Arabic. Very rudimentary hand and spellings (e.g., ושׁעא for والساعة and אלה for both الله and الى and נדרכם for نظركم; also שׁ for س and שׂ for ش). The sender mentions fear on account of the addressee and plans to travel to Ibrāhīm and "visit the country" (nazūr al-bilād) "if we live till next year." The last line of recto tells the addressee not to worry about something (ולא תשגל קלבך יאכי מן גהת ל . . . ). Regards to various people on verso. Mentions Eliyya and 50 dinars.
