No. 6. Document. 
Belongs to M. 9. Size 11 x 6J", but a narrow strip, about f-1" wide, 
torn off along the left edge, mutilating one or two initial letters of each 
line. Otherwise record complete, in 7 lines, parallel to longer side, with 
24-26 letters in the line, in round hand. Dated, apparently at the end, 
“ on the 6th day of the month Hamtyaji.” In the body, also, a mention 
of the month Kaji. In place of usual signature, an illegible Chinese 
stamp. 
No. 7. Document. 
Belongs to M. 9. Size 11 x 8". Apparently an unfinished document 
consisting of one line and a half of writing in round hand. Neither 
signature, nor stamp ; and dated, at the beginning, only “ in the month 
Skarih-vari. A large piece is torn out of the lower blank portion of the 
sheet. 
No. 8. Document. (Plate VII, fig. 2). 
Belongs to M. 9. Size 11 x6" ; clean cut along the edges ; rather 
more than one-third of a sheet. Record complete, in 6 lines, parallel to 
longer side, with 9-22 letters in the line, in an angular hand. Dated, at 
the beginning, “ on the 17th day of the month Naha, in the 6th year, in 
the 17th ksdna .” At the end, no signature, but two scrawls which 
perhaps may represent some equivalent mark (see No. 12). 
The following is a transcript of the document:
