Business letter from Aḥmad Abū l-ʿAṭar, in Manṣūra, to Avraham Ḥaqīm, in Cairo. In Judaeo-Arabic. Dating: 18th or 19th century. For another letter between the same sender/recipient, see: AIU VII.E.59 (PGPID 30359). The Mawlid of Ṭanṭa, a celebration of the Sufi saint al-Sayyid al-Badawi's birth, is mentioned in the lower right marginal note (perhaps in connection with the yearly trade fair that coincided with the holiday). Needs further examination for content. MCD.
