Tell Lugā: Sin-putram sends the following message: May the gods Enlil and Ninurta keep you in good health.
Lugatum moved his bulls to the fortified area in order to plant sesame, and my man Ubar-Lulu was going along with them as ox driver. One of the bulls in his care died, so they came to me with this dispute; I questioned the ox drivers who accompanied Ubar-Lulu, and they declared as follows: “The bull strayed away from the herd to eat grass; he fell down and died.” I said: “Go to Nippur, to the city where there are judges; let them decide your case!” The judges in Nippur gave them their decision and handed Ubar-Lulu over to the Garden Gate in order to take the oath there. Lugatum, however, is not accepting this decision. Please take good care of Ubar-Lulu so that he does not suffer a loss.
