Year of Phaios. To Harmachorus. Theodoros to Theomnistos greetings. As we have laid upon the Petachor of Phaios with Aaronnophrius the governor, so that we may deliberate with the farmers there, how they may collect the duties of the seeds, and not finding the duties of the kômogrammateia, in order that a distribution may be made and signed, as we have also in the record, we have refrained until the same may come to be. Therefore, you will write well, to whom it is fitting, so that through this cause the land may not be left uncultivated and we may be in crimes. Farewell. (Year) of Phaios to Theomnistos.
