Many documents in the Bseiso collection are typically land sale contracts between sellers and buyers, and the parties typically handwrite the contracts which are temporarily binding until official recording at the Land Registry of the respective municipality. This document is an agreement to appear at the Land Registry for a previous agreement for the benefit of Mr. Mahrous Bseiso. Here the buyer, Mr. Bseiso, is being promised by a seller to appear at the designated Beersheba Land Registry at a specific time. The agreement goes further to explain that if the seller, Mr. Abdullah bin Sa’eed Al-Abeed, fails to appear at the designated time that he shall be liable to pay twenty Palestinian pounds to the buyer Mr. Bseiso. This agreement took place in October of 1931 and is signed by the seller and witnessed by impartial parties. This agreement further demonstrates that Mr.Bseiso was a respectable businessman who tailored contracts with precision and appropriate legal provisions to reduce breaches and violations.
