תיאור

Verso: The end of a family letter in Judaeo-Arabic. The addressee is called "my brother," and he may be an actual brother since the sender swears "by my father." He is urging the addressee to give financial help to a poor man to pass the winter and to return to his mother. Mentions a benefactor of 'the Alexandrians,' but the context is unclear. Greetings to the addressee's siblings and to Khallūf. The sender intends to pass the winter 'in the house' and tells the addressee to look after it. On recto there is an Arabic-script document (see separate record). (Information in part from CUDL.)
