To the kings: From the royal farmers from Thelbonthis and from the others who have given me the attached memorandum concerning their withdrawal to Kerkeuris of the Aphroditopolite nome, alleging that they have been wronged and shaken down by Ameinios and Horos, the village scribe of Thelbonthis, who has made declarations concerning these same matters, who is overseeing the village. I have written to Kydias the strategos and to Isidoros the epimeletes that provision be made so that the people who have come down...
...we have decided to address them. You would do well to order provision to be made [so that] the wall may be rebuilt and that, because of this, the entrance/recess of the [...] may not be affected...
