Summary of Content | According to Crum, F and G are parts of one manuscript, F being the upper, G the lower part. This manuscript contains two different texts, with a little space between the two: The first text is a security (ⲁⲥⲫⲁⲗⲉⲓⲁ) addressed by Mailanne to somebody whose name is lost, who had won a law-suit against her and demanded this deed, the exact purpose of which is difficult to see. The subject of litigation seems to be certain clothes. The second text is a document (ⲅⲣⲁⲙⲙⲁⲧⲓⲟⲛ) addressed by Nalandouse daughter of Toupels(.) and of Markunei to Maria daughter of Susanna. At Kelsei Maria had won a law-suit against her of which this deed appears further to confirm the results. The archivist of Talmis is writing the text. |
