Description

Letter addressed to Moshe ha-Dayyan, who has a son named Yosef. The sender reports that Avraham was grateful for the favor of the addressee and the favor of al-Nadiv. Avraham has sent a letter enclosed with this one, and the addressee is asked to take a look and respond to all of Avraham's needs. The letter sent by Avraham is presumably the same one written on verso, which contains numerous questions about Talmudic passages and the glosses of "the Frenchman" (Rashi?).
