Description | The butchers’ tax, commonly owned by the Goods’ Fund and the Municipal Fund, has been re-put on Dutch auction to the account of 1314 (1898-1899). After the completion of bidding, it was decided that it be undertaken by Halil Al Aklil (?) under the guarantee of Hacı Ahmad Melâ’i (?). As regards, if deemed convenient, determining a time for decision and its announcement within the legal period, it is appropriate to relegate the matter to the Sanjak Administrative Council. The 11th of Mârt (1)314 (23rd of March 1898). [8 signatures] |
