Translation into English

"To King Ptolemy, greetings. I am wronged by [someone]. [Someone] has forcibly taken me to the tower, using the chance that I was in a state of [something]. It is necessary to be either [something] or to the steward, and he said that he would show him a foreign child. (Drachma) Therefore, I ask you, O king, if what I write is true, to command the general to listen to me and to [someone] and if I show him, to compel him to return to me the handwriting of [something]."
