Two folios from a formulary divorce bill. Starts הדא נסכה אלגט. The names are "Peloni", the dates prescribed are the years from the destruction of the Second Temple, the exile of King Yehoyakhin. This may indicate that the tradition represented here is Karaite.
After the end of the Hebrew text (fol. 2 verso), are instructions in Judeo-Arabic for the act of transmitting the Get, and for appointing a proxy.
