His Eminence the Head of the Jewish Community and President of the Hebra Kadisha Society, the respected Rabbi Sassoon Khidhouri
After greetings,
The house belonging to me has been sold for the sum of 1500 Dinars for the purpose of the cemetery's expansion efforts.
And since half of this house went as the share of the heirs of the late Haj Issa Muhammad Tabja, and
we had agreed to pay an amount of 300 Dinars annually, and indeed what was necessary has been done with him,
and he received one-third of this amount. Now, Your Eminence, I request from your Excellency
to grant me a brokerage fee of 2%, which equals 30 Dinars. ⟦To you belongs⟧

After greetings
The Abolished Cemeteries Society had previously assigned me to follow up on the case of the Khan belonging to it, and I worked to vacate the Khan
for a period that lasted four years. Since the revenues of this Khan now belong to the Hebra Qaddisha Society, please allocate
what you deem appropriate for my fees.
This is for your Eminence to decide

The committee agreed to pay ten dinars
