Paraphrase Promissory note for assessed field rent (imittu), to be delivered in dates.
B owes x+2 kor of dates to A, the assessed field rent on land (imitti eqli) located at the Zabunu-ditch that extends till [broken off]. It is A's [x-]th share in the income to which he is entitled together with his brothers (C1 and C2). The dates should be delivered to the courtyard according to the 36 liters measure of the creditor. Delivery is due in Arahsamna (VIII). B should also deliver the usual by-products of the date cultivation: for each kor of dates he shall give a load of spathes (tuhallu), spadices (gipû), and fibres (mangagu), 1 darīku-container and 1 load of firewood. No payment has been received (eṭēru G Stat) for the gardener's remuneration (šissinnu). In Ayyār (II), he will deliver 1 kor of [broken off]. The document seems to end with an elat-clause but the passage is badly preserved. Witnesses.
