Greetings. To Ptolemaios and to Pasin, the one who was taken from the sacred place by those around Antipater and Onnophrius, the son of Achogreus, who was accused regarding violence, do not set aside the inquiry, so that they may send to us how they may be sent to Philon, the chief of the guards, and concerning the matters that have been clarified, let there be an inspection; concerning Antipater the Peritus (the hundred-man) and Seuthes the victorious, we have sent to Philon so that he may clarify to Ptolemaios the general and through him they may be brought back. Farewell (year) 13.

English Translation

Herakleitos to Dorion, greetings. Concerning Ptolemaios, also called Pasin, who was dragged out of the temple by those associated with Antipatros and Onnophris, the son of Achogreus, who has been accused regarding the violence: investigate thoroughly and send him to us without delay, so that they may be sent to Philon, the chief jailer, and that the appropriate inquiry may be made concerning the matters clarified. Regarding Antipatros, son of Peritos (holder of one hundred arouras), and Seuthes, son of Nikeratos, we have written to Philon so that he may clarify the matter to Ptolemaios the strategos, and through him they may be brought up. Farewell. Year 13, Hathyr [approximate date].
