The images are a digital reproduction of a handwritten letter and accompanying translation donated by Kathy Sa'ade Kenny. <div><br></div><div>In this letter Abdullah Sa'ade (Katrina Sa'ade's father) writes to Jamil Afana (Katrina's sister Jamila's husband). Abdullah writes that Filastin newspaper has published the date for Katrina and Suleiman Farhat's divorce hearing at an Orthodox Christian Ecclesiastical Court in Jerusalem. Abdullah asks Jamil to tell Katrina the news and to prepare an affadavit given Suleiman's background as a 'charlatan' and 'backstabber'. He also briefly mentions how to price some Mexican merchandise that Jamil is presumably selling. </div><div><br></div><div>These images exist as part of the Katrina Sa'ade Letters collection within the Katrina Sa'ade project of the Planet Bethlehem Archive.</div>
