Notes

• Recto, the 29 lines of writing fill the length of the folio left of the fold; verso, 33 lines of writing fill the right side of the fold, and continue in six and one half vertical lines on the left side; remainder is blank; Sporadic vocalization. Recto: under the heading שכיב מרע, the text of a Bill of Partial Gift in Contemplation of Death. This version is practically identical to the one prescribed by Isaac ben Abba Mari in Sefer ha-ʹiṭur (Warsaw 1801 p. 86d; recorded by A. Gulak, Otsar ha-sheṭarot / Asher Gulak. Jerusalem : Defus ha-po'alim, 1926, p. 115 no. 127). Followed by שטר צוואה, the text of a Bill of Will in Contemplation of Death, also as in 'Itur (ibid. no. 126); Verso: Under the heading שטר מחילה, Bill of release from obligations.
