Grant of Sultan Abdulrahman Syah to Haji Jakfar bin Encik Abubakar

Certified copy of a Sultan’s grant to Haji Jakfar bin Encik Abubakar to use a piece of land on the island of Selayar for the use of planting coconut and rubber trees with exemption of paying a tax (surat tebas). In the right-hand top corner which is partly torn we find the words ‘angka 4 empat’ (no. 4) which makes it clear that the letter was torn out of a book with other copies (cf. the court records of Daik Museum_01 etc.).
