Achilles to Pinoution, greetings to my brother; as you have written to me concerning the sent rain, make haste to have us named as successors of wine or meat in places or the monastery of Antinous, so that we may remain in our own and not in a foreign place; for we do not want chaff, lest we be taken and forced to erase the honor, as also happened in the case of Silvanus; but we want the wine that is in the city of Hermes or also of Antinous, or the meat; we want only the two; nothing for you and barley; I did not wish to go up, lest I meet a servant and be seized; but do make my face known to me as soon as you receive the message as before. I wish you to be well.

Achilles to Pinoution, his brother, greetings.
As you wrote to me concerning the sent document (breviarium), not from the catholicus concerning the annona goods, make haste to have us registered as suppliers of wine or meat at the places or monastery of Antinoopolis, so that we may remain in our own places and not in foreign ones. For we do not want straw, lest it be taken and we be forced to pay the price, as also happened in the time of Silvanus. But we want the wine in Hermopolis or Antinoopolis, or the meat; we want only these two things. Nothing of barley for you. I did not wish to come up, lest I meet an official and be detained. But do me this favor until you receive the letter, as also previously.
(hand 2) I pray you are well.
