It is not hidden from you that your servant is a teacher at the Talmud Torah school, and according to my account submitted to your Excellency below, I am still owed one Dinar from the aforementioned school from that date until this day. I am sitting idle. At the beginning, he said I will pay you the mentioned Dinar, and then he says we do not owe for these three months. Your servant hopes to prove that I was present during the last three months in which I was continuing to teach at the mentioned school by my signature in the teachers' attendance book for every day, which is currently in the mentioned school. Therefore, I expect your mercy to look into my case and then order the payment of the mentioned Dinar.
