Addressed to 'our son Sulaymān' in 'al-Maḥrūsa' (Cairo), Ḥārat al-Yahud. Dating: Late, probably 18th or 19th century. The last line of the first section seems to be a verse of poetry, probably referring to separation rather than to an actual dispute: "And when God's decree persists between me and you (pl.), I will die a stranger, wa-l-salāmu ʿalaykumū." The next section begins by addressing itself to 'our beloved daughter Sarah' and continues with wishes for her good health and informing her of the writers' good health and their yearning to see her.

Letter from Mukhtar b. Yaʿaqov to Abu l-ʿAlā Ṣāʿid b. Naja describing Ḥasan b. Bundār's assistance. Abu l-ʿAlā Ṣāʿid, the "Trustee", was a close confidant of Mevōrākh b. Saadya, the court physician and Rayyis al-Yahūd of the Fatimid Empire at the time. The letter primarily concerns goods — cloves and aromatic wood — traded between the sender and the addressee.

Letter from a brother admonishing Sitt Ikhtiṣār and Sitt al-Wasṭāniyya to take good care of their mother and younger sister (by pawning something to send them money to buy grain). […] The sender has sent two sleeping carpets (waṭāwayn), one for the girl (al-ṣabiyya) and the other for Misk ("Musk"), the girl's female slave (jāriya). The handwriting of this letter looks very similar or identical with that of T-S NS J3, and some of the same names appear in each letter, including Abū l-Surūr, Abū ʿAlī, and Sitt Ikhtiṣār. (Information in part from Goitein's index cards.)
