Description

Ptolemaios has received a letter from his brother Kassianos Gemellos (Cassianus Gemellus) informing him that his brother had been in the neighbouhood. He more or less blames Kassianos for not coming up-country and paying him a visit. Ptolemaios urges Kassianos not to fail to visit him next time he comes his brother's way. He promises to send a sum of money to Kassianos. If he cannot find someone to take it to Kassianos, Ptolemaios will pay Longinus back in the place where he lives, situated south of Karanis.
