Letter from a Sicilian who had come to Egypt in order to study with Moses Maimonides and with Yiṣḥaq b. Sasson. Despite his long sojourn in the place where his children were born and died, he could not bear the hot climate. He expresses his wish to return to his hometown, Messina, where his learned father lived. (Information from Mediterranean Society, V, p. 101)
