Document Text Observations

A letter from Nahray b. Nissim addressed to an individual in Qayrawan mentions galls, camphor water, and a shipment of money. In the letter, Nahray also expresses concern for his family, who are still in Qayrawan. This suggests that the letter was written during an early period.
