Reference to your letter numbered 11804 and dated 12 / 12 / 1955.
Upon referring to the records of Frank Iny School, it was found that the student Muthir (Edmond) Ezra
Shamoun was registered under the name Edmond Ezra Shamoun, and the specialized clerk did not notice the necessity of writing
the full name of the aforementioned person, and the said student did not attempt to correct his name, believing
that there was no need for it, and he was unaware that he would encounter difficulties when approaching the relevant
specialized departments.
The document of non-deprivation of citizenship numbered 1788 and dated 27 / 4 / 1952, as well as the
civil identity book numbered 720 and dated 12 / 1 / 1939 belonging to the aforementioned person, will be presented to you
when he visits your department as documents confirming that the full name of the aforementioned person is Muthir (Edmond)
Ezra Shamoun, for your kind review and to verify their authenticity.
Therefore, please approve the correction of the name of the aforementioned person.
