Description

Letter from Dawud son of the haver to a certain dayyan. It seems some dramatic event has taken place off-scene (maybe in Palestine?) and here we hear about the ripples. Someone has arrived from Gaza safely. Dawud reports that the Qaraites all went to Cairo. He expresses concern for the judge Menahem. The letter also mentions David al-Amani, rent and government taxes and the wife of al-Nezer. The letter is to be carried by Ibn al-Tabib.
