Yosef testify that they entered the house of a Jew named Bashshār and found Salāma b. […] The amir nearly had the defendants beaten. (End of first document.) Now, Abū l-Surūr has finally succeeded in bringing Salāma before the Jewish court and "sayyidnā" (though the pronouns are not entirely clear in l. 4 and it could also be Salāma suing Abū l-Surūr). […] The shoṭer and the nadiv are present, and they deny receiving any such letter from Abū l-Surūr. The document ends abruptly with the line, "The day broke, and the crowd dispersed."

Dating is 18th- or 19th-century based on the Ottoman kurush reference in Arabic and perhaps post-1707 if the word "גנזרילי" on the verso was intended as a reference to the gold cinzirli (the spelling is somewhat unclear for this to be certain). Some of the account entries mention names, such as: Abdaraḥman al-Maghribī and Raḥamīm Gershon.
