Translation of the tablet in the envelope Thus (say) Ali-ahum and Aššur-taklāku: say to Iddin-abum, Ennānum, Puzur-Aššur and Ikuppiya. There, I have seen the tablets, and the enveloped tablet concerning 5 minas of silver that Aššur-ṭāb gave as investment loan to Ikuppiya and that the creditor had written down, give him the tablet so that he cancels it (kills it). Here, I wrote the tablet of his joint stock company with his investors.
