English Translation

Aurelius Chairemon, son of Horigenes, whose mother is Thaesis, from Aph[...]on,
to Aurelius Phamaitis, son of Nemesion, whose mother is Tapontos, from the village of Tebtynis:
I have leased from you near the village of Tebetny, from the allotment of Demosthenes, two and a half arouras
for the sowing of vegetable seed for the current second year,
on condition of half-share of the crops produced at the threshing-floor. To me, the lessee, belongs half of the total,
in return for which I undertake the provision of seeds and all expenses from sowing until harvest and threshing.
To you, Phamaitis, belongs the remaining half, in return for the public taxes and charges on the land.
After threshing, we shall equally divide whatever remains.
You will provide me at sowing-time, as an advance, three pairs of oxen, which belong to the public land under your responsibility, Phamaitis.
Having been questioned, I have agreed. The lease is valid.
Year 2 of the Emperor Caesar Marcus Julius Philippus Pius Felix Augustus and Marcus Julius Philippus, the most noble Caesar, Augusti, Hathyr 8.
I, Aurelius Chairemon, have leased as stated above. I, Aurelius Amoi[...], wrote on his behalf, as he declared that he does not know letters.
