They are to keep to the regular mail routes and where there is no mail-route, they are to use a wagon or a horse — no matter whether their destination may be far or near. […] Local Jews who wish to travel for the purpose of conducting business are to report to the local authorities the day of their departure, the duration, and the purpose of their travel […]
