APIS Translation (English)

Petenephies to N.N. greeting and good health. The keepers of the crocodiles from whom you took security for the payment of 2 artabas of wheat each have never made the payment. Please therefore to release them and return the articles pledged, in order that they may be able without hindrance to furnish the supplies of food for the sacred animals. Good-bye. The 3rd year, Epeiph 12.
