Recto: Letter from the yeshiva in Jerusalem to Mevorakh (b. Seʿadya?), in Fustat. In Hebrew. Fragmentary. Dating: After 1094 CE. This is a letter of support for Shela b. Mevasser and his brother, having to do with their silk shop in Alexandria.

On verso there are extensive accounts in Arabic script, some entries beginning with "al-dār."
