To Marcus Aurelius Achilleus also called Ammonios, the most excellent hypomnematographos, and to those chosen by the most excellent council to carry out the distribution of the corn dole,
from Aurelius Sarapammon […] also called Alexandros […]. I was registered in the quarter of Temiouthis, in which I perform liturgies, and I was approved by scrutiny in the […] year. But now, in the lists submitted for the corn dole, the phylarch of our quarter, Amyntas, has omitted my name by mistake. For this reason I ask, in accordance with the goodwill that belongs to you, that you order me to be placed among those who receive the corn dole, so that I too may share in the common benefaction.
Farewell.
