Description

Letter in Judaeo-Arabic. The name Yosef b. Seʿadya appears on the other side (technically recto); perhaps this is the name of the sender. The sender is in terrible straits and urges the addressee to meet with him and help him. He reminds the addressee that "when [he] was healthy," he used to do whatever the addressee asked of him no matter how unpleasant. ASE
