The priest, Chinychios of Hermopolis, writing down on the thoroughfare of the city, as of the year 58, greets you. I have withheld from you half of the honor of the land from which I have sold to Chinychi, Poremanthios, the produce of the current year in the area of the city above Thoteos, with which he has withheld from you through the hand of the same Chinychios, eight silver drachmas, and now the remaining part of the honor, twenty-eight silver drachmas, of the public.
