Hermophilus greets you, Teutis.
Send us the leather, having delivered it to Abdos, who is with Callidemos.
Prepare for Emrotes to bring the female animals into the pasture so that they may be fed; if not, that they will pay me the foals that are necessary for them to bear.
He protests against Radanus and the others who are with you, so that he may not refuse later, and write to me whatever they may respond to you.
Farewell. (Year) 24

Hermophilos to Tieus, greetings.
Send us the hide,
having delivered it to Abdos, who is with Kallidemos.
And instruct Emroutis,
the Arab from the hill country, and his sons,
to bring down the female animals to the pasture
so that they may be mated. If not,
they will pay me for the foals
which the females ought to bear.
And make a formal protest in the presence
of Rhadanos and the others who are with you,
so that later he may not deny it,
and write to me
whatever answer they give you.
Farewell. (Year)
