A short note from Alypios, the estate owner, to his manager Heroninos, ordering him to hand over a pig and two fine piglets to Alypios' cook Gregorios and insisting that the pig be a good one. It belongs to the Heroninos archive from Theadelphia in the Fayum, AD 249-268.
Alypios was the owner of the large estate managed by Heroninos. The abbreviated 'I have signed' is his authenticating mark; the address to Heroninos is broken off.

It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
