Petearmotis of Horus, the leader of those in the New (Testament) who bear the burden, and the other elders.
To Dionysius, the grain manager, greetings concerning the work about Oxyrhynchus. We agree to have from you the produce of the year 20 (of the year) for the burden in the use of twenty bushels of wheat; (they are) bushels of wheat measured towards the bronze, and I will not touch the burden unless I lighten them from those imposed upon me, the burden. But if we do not pay, we will measure [the bushels of wheat].
To the grain manager among the bearers.
