Item JM-AEPI/VI/Γ/15/1885/410 - Petition sent by Sems id din il Sourafa.

When he sold his share of the shop (to the court), he was given by the Dragoman a parcel with the amount of 50 Turkish liras. But, he was too shy to count the money (ashamed of the court), so he went straight home and counted them there and found out that there were only 49 liras inside the parcel. He notified the Dragoman about this, but he told him that this is how he received the parcel from the Treasurer and he gave it to him intact. The petitioner is kindly asking to be given 1 lira.
