From Judah ben Benjamin ha-Rofe Anav of Rome's treatise on ritual slaughter. It contains the end of the section on sheḥitah, and the beginning of the section on ṭerefot. Parallel to, in the published edition of Blau: Shiṭat ha-ḳadmonin / J.M. ha-Kohen Blau [ed.], Brooklyn : N.Y. Bloi, 1980, Hullin vol. II,p. 284 l. 15 עליהן to 285 l. 13 מסני.
The text is interrupted here, and a second headline is inserted: פסקי הלכות בדיקה שחיבר הר יהודה בה"ר בנימין נ"ע איש רומי וחלקם לשמונה.
The scribe, Abraham ben Elijah of Rome, signs the end of the section on sheḥitah, even though he continues to copy the next section.
This is probably in order to insert his original and clever remark, paraphrasing R. Jose in the end of Mishnah Kelim in the context of this treatise: אשריך עניין שחיטה שנכנסת במומחה ויצאת בזהב, followed by a short homily on the symbolism of gold.
