To Hermophilos, royal secretary, of Arsinoe, of the district of Heracleides, from Orseus, son of Nemesion, of Socrates' mother, Heraclitus from the village of Ptolemaios, (to) Hormus of the district of Heracleides. My brother, who is of the same father and mother, Ischyras, from the same village, having completed the ethnography of the aforementioned village, passed away on the 15th of Mecheir in the current year. Therefore, I request that his name be honored in the list of the deceased as is customary for those of similar status.
