&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Translation of the tablet in the envelope&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thus (say) Ali-ahum and A&amp;scaron;&amp;scaron;ur-taklāku: say to Iddin-abum, Ennānum, Puzur-A&amp;scaron;&amp;scaron;ur and Ikuppiya.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There, I have seen the tablets, and the enveloped tablet concerning 5 minas of silver that A&amp;scaron;&amp;scaron;ur-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.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Structure and data&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
