In English machine translation

Eirenaios to Heroninos his brother, greetings. I have received from you, on the account of the euschemon, for the expenses in my charge, for which I will give account, 8 single-measure jars (monochora) of wine, total 8. I pray for your health. Year 5, Tybi 18. And on the 19th, another 4 double-measure jars (dichora).

Part of the Heroninos archive. The 'euschemon' is a title for a person of rank, apparently a local notable whose account was charged; monochora and dichora are wine jars of single and double capacity.
