Aurelius Apion, also known as Ammonius, the strategos of Lycopolis,
to Aurelius Apollonios, royal secretary of the same law,
to the most beloved,
greetings.
As for your other letters, brother, which you have sent through your helper,
the necessary and appropriate responses will be provided; however, take care now,
as it has been commanded and ordered by the most illustrious governor Meouius Honoratianus,
to make a record of the letters transmitted to me in advance
regarding the matter at hand, knowing that due to the recent slowness
and season of collection, even today you owe this.
You should take care
so that you may be persuaded to comply with the orders given by the
most illustrious governor.
