Description

Informal note in Arabic script. Addressed to a certain 'al-shaykh al-fāḍil.' Possibly from a woman? The sender's information looks like "al-ʿabdatuhā" (which would be ungrammatical but an understandable error). The note needs further examination for content. On verso there is a note in shaky Arabic script (with one word in Hebrew script) giving the date as Rabīʿ II 496 AH (with a helpful legend in Judaeo-Arabic underneath). Possibly mentioning the rent (ujra) for that month.
