To Aurelius Apollonius, also called Hierax,
strategos of the Arsinoite nome, Herakleides division,
from Aurelius Asois, son of Pauseiris,
from the village of Philadelphia,
concerning my brother Atammon,
who was staying in the village of Kaminou.
Due to the attack made upon us by the Libyans,
my brother Atammon fell down the day before yesterday
from a roof and became ill in the same village,

Since he remains untreated, I submit these documents,
requesting that they be registered,
lest anything human (i.e., death) should happen to him.
Farewell.
