the pretense
from Aurelius Abidsautha
of Abidierdus, councilor of Neapolis,
of houses in Bethphoureah.
Philotas of Nisaraiabou, sir, at each instance, he forced me, concerning which books I sent to our most illustrious magistrate, about which, having dared, he acted together with the servant of Sibbaraios of his.
I ask and I beg you for your kindness regarding the accusations which we bring against the greater judge, needing to be examined, to send them back to me regarding the magnitude of the magistracy of Pomponius Laetianus; for I am ready to accuse him concerning what he has done, and I will always thank you for your fortune.
May you prosper, sir, for many years.

To Julius Proclus, prefect, praepositus
of the praetentura,
from Aurelius Abidsautas,
son of Abidierdos, councillor of Neapolis,
residing in the village of Bethphouraia.
Philotas, son of Nisaraiabos, my lord, has violently wronged me in every respect, concerning whom I have sent letters to our most illustrious consular governor, regarding the deeds he dared to commit together with Sibbaraios, his servant.
I request and beseech your benevolence, since the charges I bring require examination by a higher judge, to send them up together with me to the authority of Pomponius Laetianus, who governs the consulate. For I am prepared to prosecute him for what he has done, and I shall forever be grateful to your fortune.
Farewell, my lord, for many years.
