Sarapion, greetings to Petemouthis. An excerpt of the financial transaction concerning Leonidas the grain dealer is under consideration. Farewell (year) 32 Hathur.
(hand 2) To Leonidas the grain dealer. The letter from Petemouthis, the royal secretary, regarding what he writes should be transacted into loans for the year of the harvest.
Semtheus, the topographer of the regions around Phebiichin, is to provide the royal officials and the queen with an account of all revenues for the farmers. This is based on the marked records.
From him (of the artabans?) half are to be taken by the appointed Semtheus and the grain dealers from the transformed wheat of Arsinoe and what you have received from him in artabas.
It is to be done, the remaining ones should be measured, with the signature of Theridios, the relative and general, and of Petemou, previously received from the handwritten oath of the king regarding the sowing and not allowing any to be left as waste and to deliver it to the new ones along with the land's exports, being accountable for every obligation, being mutual guarantees for the establishment, of which the donation is to be measured for them to the farmers, along with the opinion of Semtheus and the others accustomed to the wheat artabas.
One hundred and eighty artabas are to be made, and a symbol and counter-symbol are to be made for them as is appropriate.
Petemouthis greets Sarapion. As we have written to Theridios, the relative and general, an excerpt of the letter is under consideration, so that knowing you may arrange to send to the grain dealer as is appropriate the declared (wheat) (artabas) of two hundred and twenty-two half (year) 32 Hathur.
To Theridios. The letter from Semtheus, the topographer of the regions around Phebiichin, is under consideration. Since the secretaries have been informed, it is necessary to measure from the transformed wheat of Arsinoe the declared (artabas).
It is to be done, you should arrange to send as is appropriate.

Sarapion to Peteimouthes, greetings. A copy of the communication to Leonides the grain-officer is attached. Farewell. Year 32, Hathyr 29.
To Leonides, grain-officer. A copy of the letter from Peteimouthes, the royal secretary, concerning the matters he writes must be arranged for loans for the sowing of the 32nd year, is attached for Semtheus, the local scribe of the district around Phebichis, so that it may be available to the royal farmers and those of the queen and all revenues from the place. From the amounts signed off by him, 222½ artabas are deducted, those sent to Semtheus and the grain-officers with him from the wheat transported from the Arsinoite nome, and from what you reported having given him, 124½ artabas, making a total of 124½ artabas. Measure out the remainder, with the co-signature of Theris, the relative and strategos, and after previously receiving a written royal oath concerning sowing and leaving no land unsown, and delivering guarantees of new crops along with the land taxes, being mutually responsible without dispute for repayment, whose delivery you are to measure out to the farmers themselves, according to the customary opinion of Semtheus and the others, 198 artabas of wheat, making 198 artabas, and prepare a receipt and counter-receipt with them as is proper.
Peteimouthes to Sarapion, greetings. A copy of the letter we wrote to Theris, the relative and strategos, is attached, so that, being informed, you may instruct the grain-officer to deliver as is proper the indicated 1,222½ artabas of wheat. Year 32, Hathyr 12.
To Theris. We have attached a copy of the report from Semtheus, the local scribe of the district around Phebichis. Since the scribes have reported that the indicated 222½ artabas of wheat transported from the Arsinoite nome must be measured out, you will do well to instruct accordingly to deliver as is proper.
