Greetings :-
We were unable to obtain approval from your esteemed council
to pay for the sharpening of ten knives before working
on their sharpening, due to our urgent need for them. The
sharpening of these knives cost an amount of three and a half dinars
according to the attached receipt, therefore we hope for approval to
disburse the aforementioned amount,
Respectfully yours,
