The Supreme Magistrate will no doubt agree on the benefits of the inn I rented in the Jewish community, and kept by paying rent, and that the income that did not exist before increased to 127 florins a year, and over time it continued to grow. However, the members of the Jewish community did not like that, and therefore they use intrigues that harm the raising of the income of this city, and which enable them to get rich easier. Under the guise of hospitality, foreign Jews who are come to the city community, instead of coming to me as usual, they take to themselves for an apartment and food. They usually do that in secret, in such a way as to diminish my earnings, and they also disturb or completely destroy the welfare of the city itself. Since similar intrigues of the members of the Jewish community are very harmful for the city and its coffers, and their mentioned cunning came to light because they were buying food through the needs of households, especially wine that they sell in urns in half and a quarter. Therefore, I humbly ask the Supreme Magistrate and I insist that, in order to avoid harm, both the city treasury and mine, honor the publication of these provisions that members of the Jewish community do not receive foreign Jews under the guise of hospitality, and not provide them accommodation and food, and to impose a heavier punishment for criminals. A humble servant of the sublime Sombor Magistrate, On October 18th, 1806. Salamon Weiss A member of the Jewish community To the Exalted Magistrate of the free royal city of Sombor, dear gentleman The humble request of Salamon Weiss, a member of the Jewish community, against the customs of intrigue carried out by members of the Jewish community
