Translation into English

From Kolonos (hand 2) in the year of the god Vespasian, Phaios, who is also Tmros, to Apollonios, concerning his deceased twin brother. From the aforementioned. Pedoukaios Kolonos attests in writing that it has not been forged, it is clear that he himself has made the accusation of forgery. For the crime of unthreatening voice, he has not dared to write it down. The handwritten document is called, however, that it was lawfully placed without being contested. If indeed it has been established, everything that may be said to be this.

From Loupos (hand 2) in the year of the god Vespasian, Thauetion by the avenger, Thamou, concerning the aforementioned. Julius Loupos, having learned from Areios the jurist, what the laws command and knowing that neither in those things which must be arranged nor to write, but authority has been given to the fathers to make heirs of the children whom they wish. Having recognized all and the [testament(?) not being] unlawful and the father having the authority [whom he wishes] of the children to make heirs.
