Private Letter
Description
Letter sent apparently by a woman concerning the purchase of wool for herself and for another woman - she has had difficulty finding wool, and she asks for money to pay for it. Note that while the writer uses the feminine with the first person in the body of the text (l. 11), the address indicates that the letter came from a man, Hyakinthos - who could be a brother with whom she was staying
