To Dios and Proto-genes, who have been gymnasiarchs, to the librarians of the public library in Arsinoe, from Seleucus and Ptolemy, both of them, from the village of Karanidos of the Heracleides district. From whom each of us has registered through Ammonius and Sarapion, the former librarians, we wish to grant to our brother, who is of the same father and mother, Peteeus, each a sixth part of a common and undivided olive grove in the residential area of a certain land around Psenarpsen, which is, from which each has registered half of the olive grove, so that it may be on the same property of the olive grove, a third of the value of two hundred silver drachmas. Therefore, we announce that you should send to the office of Karanidos, to share with us as is appropriate. (hand 2) To the office of Karanidos; in which it is believed concerning the third part of the property of the olive grove, let it be completed as it should, since it is not held by anyone.

To Dios and Protogenes, former gymnasiarchs, librarians of the public library in Arsinoe, from Seleukos and Ptollas, both sons of Petsiris, from the village of Karanis in the Herakleides district. From the properties which each of us registered through Ammonios and Sarapion, former librarians, we wish to transfer to our brother Peteeus, born of the same father and mother, each of us a sixth share, jointly and indivisibly, of an olive grove classified as private land, measuring one aroura near Psenarpsenesis, from which each of us had previously registered half of the olive grove, so that the total managed olive grove amounts to one-third of an aroura, valued at two hundred silver drachmas. Therefore, we request that you instruct the office of Karanis to officially record this transaction for us as is proper.
(hand 2) To the office of Karanis: Since they have made a declaration concerning the third part of the aroura of the allotment, and since they are not restrained by anyone, let it be completed as is proper.
