I had previously presented to you in the annual report regarding the (number) ⟦danger⟧ of the roofs, and upon consulting the owner
of the house, he refused to do so. Now I request that a letter be sent to the Jewish Lay Council to take the
necessary action because the roof remaining in this condition makes the rain very ⟦harmful to the students⟧. This is for your order, sir.

Addressed to the Director of the National School, a copy of which was sent to your esteemed council
We have the honor to inform you that the students whose names are listed in our aforementioned letter have been transferred
However, this transfer has burdened each of the mentioned students with an expense of seven rupees for the purchase of books, etc.
In addition to what they had previously spent when they were at the National School before their transfer
Since they are all poor, we kindly ask you to consider the matter of granting them 45 rupees to
be distributed among them equally. You must remember that the committee promised them, based on your approval,
to provide them with assistance before their transfer to the Ras al-Qarya Official School. We hope to help them with that given their poverty.
