[ILL] the Moulavies wrote.
Mem: to inquire the Precise meaning [from?] themselves, and to have it written in English.
J. H. Dec. 17th 1777.
Sir
I have enquired – I find my Translation was right in the litteral meaning and partly in the occustomary Application of the Word “Uafee” – It means such [Sacers?] as are not supported by the Authority of the Koran but are notorious from general & antient usage.
