Description | The Khawâjah Fûtî Talîl, brother of the Khawâjah Dâwûd Talîl, tenant of the shop in the municipal garden towards the Consul of France, has filed an application to establish a second shop next to the mentioned one, on condition that the rent of the first shop is renewed, according to the stated sum until the end of the lease of the second shop, which is under establishment. The agreement of the mentioned tenant was taken and the rent of the second shop was set at 108 French liras for three years, starting from the fifteenth day of Ramadan, (1)319 until the fourteenth day of Ramadan, (1)322. Accordingly, the ledgers were reviewed and it has appeared that the lease of the first shop expires with end of the nineteenth day of Shawwal, (1)320. It was decided to extend the lease term starting from the tenth day of Shawwal, (1)320 until the fourteenth day of Ramadan, (1)322, which is one year, 11 months and five days, for the previous rent which is one and a half French liras per year. The rent for the mentioned period should be paid at the start of the contract. In order to conclude and renew the mentioned rent according to the written instructions, this decision was taken on the 5th of Tishrîn Thânî (1)317 (18th of November 1901). [5 signatures] |
