Petition by the people of Khaminah
The people of Khaminah have written to a woman [possibly Nuzhat al-Dawlah] regarding their problems with the current steward, requesting that she would send a trustworthy person to review the accounts, compare them to that of the steward, and insure that he is not exacting taxes more than what is recorded.

Taxes of Mulla ‘Ali and his wife, 1925
Mulla ‘Ali Dizaji Ahari writes to Hujjat al-Islam about the demand of the Department of Taxes in Ahar that he and his wife, the daughter of Karbalayi ‘Abbas, pay taxes based on their belonging to the Qarachurlu clan. He states that they do not belong to the Qarachurlu clan; also argues that taxing of women is not common, and asks the addressee to mediate with the head of the Tax Department. On the margin, Ayatollah Sadiq Tababayi has requested Amin al-Ulama’ to review this case.
