Notes
- Text breaks denoted by a two hyphens; Under the heading בעהד״י; R. Judah Kohen ben R. Maimon agrees to serve as the trustee of the property of R. Khalifa ben Samuel, for the fee of 2,000 pieces of silver. If he breaks the agreement he will be paid only for the time he served. If Khalifa dismisses him he will be paid the full amount; R. Moses Alashqar appears as a guarantor. The witnesses (who probably are also serving as a court) autographs: Isaiah Mas'oud 'Amram, and Solomon "the Younger"; Written by the same court scribe that wrote Halper 370 (dated 1609, on a folio of nearly identical size) and Halper 362 (1626).
