List of communal contributions received in the month of Adar I that dates to the late-18th or early-19th centuries, based on the names mentioned onr recto, paleography, and structure of other lists in JRL Series C. The list on the verso mentions "מצרופ / expenses" rather than "מקבוץ / received" which is the key term on the recto that indicates incoming rather than outgoing funds. Many names are listed on the recto, such as: Yitzhak Abu Harun, Eliahu Menashe, Aharon Simhon, and others. On the verso, the expesnses are indicated for example, with "חזן / hazzan" and "סופר / scribe". Therefore the latter numerical figures may indicate payments made to individuals who held these posts.
