Description | A wooden path has been constructed on the side of the Greek Orthodox convent road which leads to the Latin Patriachate's road, to reach the hotel in the mentioned area. Objection to this path has been filed on the 13th of Kânûn Thânî (1)311, and the respectable, the Roman patriarch has been notified by the higher district council. The directions were presented on the 31st of Agustos (1)312 to the district council, which notified the mentioned Patriarchat. Upon reviewing the documents, it appeared that building the mentioned bridge contradicts article 113 of the Ministry of Justice, and the matter has to be evaluated in the preliminary court in Jerusalem. Accordingly, the council has decided to appoint one of us, the respectable Tahir Effendi to file the lawsuit and pay the necessary fees from the municipality’s treasury. This decision has been taken on the 16th of Aylûl (1)312 (28th of September 1896). [6 signatures] |
