Yevr.-Arab. II 1403

Letter from Mordekhai ha-Levi b. Shemuel, Moshe Levi b. Shemuel, and the Qaraite community of Jerusalem to Shelomo Kohen, his son Yosef Kohen, Aharon Levi, Yosef Gabbai, and Yeshuʿa Ẓaʿir, in Fustat/Cairo. In Judaeo-Arabic. Dated: Tuesday, 3 Iyyar 5550 AM (רחש לבי), which is 1790 CE. The writers report that the addressees departed without the letters of Muṣṭafā al-Ṣabbāgh regarding the "bolsa" of 247.5 of a certain currency that they have with them. They are to give this money to the partners of Muṣṭafā, Ḥannā Ṣāṣī and Mikha'īl al-Kuḥayl(?). Needs further examination.
