Description

Letter in Ladino. Dated: 10 Nisan 5528 AM = 1768 CE. The writer's name is Yedidya Tariqa and his location (Chania = כאניה) is listed in the heading. The addressee's name is Moshe Yaʿanqo[?] but another name is listed at the bottom– perhaps a letter carrier, Shabbetay Magola. Mentions various ships and business matters as well as Crete (Candia). Mentions people such as David סולש, the (death of the?) daughter of [...] and Shaʾul b. Yaʿaqov Bonfil, and Shemuel. Needs further examination.
