Greetings to Asklepiades. Concerning the warlike assignments from Memphis, we have written that those holding lots in Memphis and those newly [settled] in the Arsinoite were to be collected by the tax collectors. You have written to us offering them for justification, the collectors claiming that they do not reside here. Therefore, the tax collectors are ill-advised to enroll [them]; for it is incumbent upon them to remit the payments, showing to whom they should [show] the collections of the pentauron [...] and ensure to arrange for them not to falsely accuse us in the same matters twice. Farewell in the year 14, Mesore 12.
