APIS Translation (English)

(Since the workmen said they had no) money I borrowed bast fiber and tried to give it to them; but they were unwilling to accept it, as Menestratos reports to me. I gave him 30 drachmas 2 obols. I have sent the account of the Thracian. Two hundred artabs have been sent to Alexandria at an obol (per artab). Total 33 (drachmas) 2 obols. The transport from the marshland was 2 drachmas 2 obols. Price of 66 reed mats at. 5 chalkoi, total 6 drachmas 5 1/4 obols; and reeds to bind the mats, 1 1/2 obols. For the draft animals which carried the loads to Philadelphia, which were 22, at three obols, total 11 drachmas; and 22 from Philadelphia to Kerke at an obol, total 3 (drachmas) 4 obols. And in Kerke I was charged 3 drachmas for a boat.
