Sale of slaves.
fA sells his slaves (amēluttu) C1 and C2 to B for a hariṣ price amounting to 1/2 mina of silver, of which 1/8 is alloy. Note that the usual "of (the seller's) own free will" is lacking. The seller guarantees against (suits brought by) a person acting unlawfully (sēhû), a person claiming (pāqirānu) that these slaves are free persons (mār banê), or the existence of a(nother) document (sipru) pertaining to these slaves. See also BM31024 (= Nbk 37). Names of 2 witnesses and the scribe: Šamaš-šumu-līšir/Adad-šumu-iddin//Aškāpu.
