Letter of Nabû-ušallim (NU), self-designating as “servant” (ardu) to the High Priest (šatammu), “his lord”, opening with a quote by the High Priest as given by a Ṭāb-šār-Eanna (ṬŠE) about NU sending wool and […]. After a broken section, NU asks if he should hand over some equipment to ṬŠE and states that he will watch over the recipient’s establishment (bītu) until receiving a decision from the recipient. NU also suggests that the recipient writes a letter to Iqū’a or Amīl-Nanāya to give NU dates so that he can brew beer for the recipient. The sender also asks about the recipient’s instructions about Ubāru and Nabû-na’id’s statement about the temple and silver.
