Antimenes to Zenon, greetings. If you are well, it would be good; I myself am also in good health.
I have copied for you the letter sent to me from Sosipatros, so that, being informed, you may report it to Apollonios in conversation...
Nothing was provided to them for travel expenses, nor...
...they were driven by the winter storms into Arsinoe...
Farewell. Year 28, Peritios 28.
Sosipatros to Antimenes, greetings. If you are well in body and everything else is according to your wishes, it would be good; we ourselves are also well. Ariston and his sister, having arrived here, reported that they had been treated very kindly by you in every respect. You do well, therefore, in not treating us as strangers; we too will try to take full care concerning whatever you are eager about and write to us. Know that they were driven by the winter storms into Patara, and from there, having hired a ship, they sailed along to us in Arsinoe. The fare amounted to 35 drachmas. I have written to you so that you may know.
Farewell. Year 28, Apellaios 26.
Antimenes concerning Doris to Zenon.
Also a copy of the letter from Antipatros. Year 28, Dystros 17, in Mendes.
