Description

From Satornilus to Apollonios, referring to the difficulty of getting a boat in order to carry a body to Alexandria and to some delay in the preparation of the body. He got one through the intervention of Clematius the chief priest, who sent a skiff of 60 artabs burthen. He seeks from Apollonios a letter which those bearing the body can carry with them to avoid trouble of some kind during the journey
