† καὶ ἄλλοτε, ὡς νομίζω, ἔγραψα τῇ περιβλέπτῳ σου γνησίᾳ φιλίᾳ περὶ τοῦ παρόντος γραμματηφόρου ναύτου
χάριν τοῦ χρέους αὐτοῦ, ὡς μᾶλλον οὖν χρεωστεῖται ἀπό τινος ἕως δύο νομισμάτων, καὶ ὁ χρεωστῶν ἀπέθανεν,
καὶ ὁ πενθερὸς αὐτοῦ ἐκληρονόμησεν αὐτὸν, καὶ οὐκ ἠνέσχετο τοῦτον ἀπαλλάξαι τὸ χρέος τοῦ ἀποθανότος. δεχομένη οὖν
ἡ περίβλεπτός σου φιλία τὴν παροῦσάν μου ἐπιστολήν, τὸν κληρονομήσαντα τὸν ἀποθανότα ἀναίτησον αὐτῷ τὸ
χρέος αὐτοῦ. ἔχει γὰρ ὡς εἶπεν μάρτυρας ἐπισταμένους ὡς χρεωστεῖ αὐτῷ ὁ ἀποθανὼν τὰ αὐτὰ δύο νομίσματα.
λοιπὸν μὴ δεηθῇ ἄλλης ἐπιστολῆς μου περὶ αὐτοῦ ἵνα εὕρῃ καὶ αὐτὸς πληρῶσαι τὸν ἀνδρισμὸν αὐτοῦ †

† On another occasion too, I believe, I wrote to your admirable true friendship about the present letter-carrier, a sailor, on account of his debt, namely that he is owed by someone up to 2 solidi; and the debtor died, and his father-in-law inherited from him, and he would not consent to release the debt of the deceased to this man. So when your admirable friendship receives my present letter, demand back for him his debt from the man who inherited from the deceased. For he has, as he said, witnesses who know that the deceased owes him the same 2 solidi. For the rest, let him not need another letter of mine about him, so that he too may be able to fill his levy-quota (?) †
In the month of Hathyr […] of the 9th (?) indiction †

† To the admirable, honour-worthy friend Papas, pagarch of Apollonos Ano † Theodoros †
Concerning the court (?) of Pheu, sailor

About this record's data
- From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
- AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
- Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
- Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
- Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
- date — from HGV-meta, TM-Text 39085 (see that record)
