Paper or parchment
Paper or parchment handled in a dream often touches the threat of losses, likely through a lawsuit, with anger and disagreement near the home. The dream may ask what formal matter is pressing on you, and whether the documents passing through your hands carry dispute and loss rather than the settlement you'd hoped for.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for paper or parchment, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
If you have occasion in your dreams to refer to, or handle, any paper or parchment, you will be threatened with losses. They are likely to be in the nature of a lawsuit. For a young woman, it means that she will be angry with her lover and that she fears the opinion of acquaintances. Beware, if you are married, of disagreements in the precincts of the home.
