1  ‘… The gifts which the letter-carrier brought, consisting of … wheat and the new flax, we presented to the king. And you must know that the house of the gouty Nicanor at Canopus is ours for 2 talents 500 drachmae. So if the people of Antiochus the rachas importune you, take note that originally we came forward first and have paid earnest-money and repulsed …; and of these same facts we notified him when he was here himself and his secretary Sosibius approached us on his behalf. Year 28, Choiach 13.
