              Case unclear since upper part of the document is missing throughout. Johannes Xicluna leased land in the area of Monte Calibo from Francisca de Nana. Xicluna formed a partnership with Michaele Cuschieri for two years, after which Cuschieri remained in debt to Scicluna for 127 uncia and 20 tari. Cuschieri sold grain as well as his house to settle the debt. It is unclear what the actual dispute is about, but information is given on how the partnership managed its affairs, and other information on the cultivation and sail of grain.

              [Pro Domenicus Dorbesi]

              Part of Law Courts Miscellaneous

              Considerable water staining compromising legibility of texts. The dispute involves land possessed by Domenicus Dorbesi in the area of Ta Catald, in Gharb, Gozo. There seems to be disagreement about the conditions of transfer by sale to the same Dorbesi and reference is made to various dates prior to the case, referencing potential contracts and previous transfers. Reference is also made to creditors who may be owed money in connection to the land. The last folio ends mid-sentence and it is therefore clear that more was originally included in the original libellus.
