Description

Official correspondence in Arabic script. Petition? Fragment (lower part). The sender's name is likely Bū Bakr b. ʿAntar (right margin). The main request seems to be that the addressee attend somewhere immediately: ان يجمل(؟) مملوكه بالحضور سرعة… سرعة حضوره… سرعة حضوره سرعة سرعة. Might mention someone called al-Tūnisī in l. 4. Needs further examination.
