Greetings to Zenon.
Seal. I have given you also the previous supplications concerning those things that were sent.
Traveling to Sophtin in Memphis for the offerings. It is indeed the case that for each of those I have lost
garments (of drachmas) 12 and offerings (of drachmas) 2 and bronze (of drachmas) 2 (amounting to) 16 drachmas.
Therefore, I beg you, if it seems good to you, to have mercy on me by writing to Leontiskos, the chief guard,
to return the spoils after having visited. They have also reported to me that they have found.
Good fortune.
(Year) 30, of Daisios, 11, of Pauni.
Seal to Leontiskos.

English Translation

To Zenon, greetings.
Seal. I have also previously given you a petition concerning the things of which I was robbed while traveling to Sophthis in the Memphite nome for wool. The individual items I lost are: two garments worth 12 drachmas, wool worth 2 drachmas, and copper worth 2 drachmas, totaling 16 drachmas. Therefore, I beg you, if it seems good to you, to have pity on me by writing to Leontiskos, the chief of police, instructing him to investigate and return the stolen property. Indeed, they have also reported to me that they have found it.
Farewell.
Year 30, Daisios 11, Pauni 1.
