These things, having been encountered by me at the present time before the tribunal. As I was not sufficient, I encountered the case of the matter. I also encountered similarly in the praetorium at the present time again with the attendant. And he said that the chief judge has a judge. He threatened him saying, 'You will be punished.' I hear of the matter as I am told. Therefore, these things have been done by us. And that our governor hears, know this. Concerning the possessions of the Syrian, having done nothing until now, do not act at all. However, concerning the other matters, whatever you can, let it be excluded regarding the settlement in Heraclea. However, I know that if you can, how the Syrian may be sold. For it is not right to spare such people. The wine of Berkythos came in jars for three hundred. See how many mistakes have been made against you in this matter, and let it be so that...

"Having presented these matters through me in the presence of the [official?], on the 21st in the Lageion, he permitted me to approach him before the tribunal. As he was not satisfied with the petition of the 21st, I similarly approached again on the 22nd in the praetorium, again in the presence of the official. And when he said that the chief judge was the one who had jurisdiction, he threatened him, saying, 'You will be beaten.' I myself heard about the matter as [ - - - ]. These, then, are the things done by us. And know that our governor is informed. Concerning the property of the Syrian, having done nothing up to now, do not act further. However, concerning other matters, do whatever you can, especially regarding the settlement in Herakleia. Be aware, however, that if you can, ensure that the Syrian pays the price. For it is not proper to pity such people. The wine in Berkuthi has reached jars at the price of three hundred. Consider how much loss you have incurred in this matter, and may it happen that [ - - - ]."
