English Translation

Demokrates to Pythonikos, greetings. I have sent you the letter addressed to Pausanias. Therefore, after delivering it, as soon as you dispatch Apollonios to us bringing the items previously written to you, clarify this to us immediately. Also request [...] so that you may provide dates (phoenix fruits) as guest-gifts, and after placing them into jars, have these also delivered to us. Instruct Ptolemaios clearly, unless you have persuaded the book-carrier and the inspector. [Something] insolent [...] to him. Concerning these matters, I have also written to Pausanias. Farewell. Year 16, Phaophi 16.

(hand 2) [Deliver to] [the great] city [of Apollo] to Pythonikos.
