Request to the strategos to serve a summons to the prefect's court TM 12372Tebtynis (Arsinoites)31. Jan. 135

To Kallistratos, strategos of the Arsinoite nome, Polemon division, from Sabinus also called Ninnos, son of Ptolemaios. A dispute being pending between me and my relatives on the one side, and on the other Posis and Kronion, who were the agents of the property of the late Patron son of Gemellus, and the agents and slaves of Paulinus, coast-guard, before Gellius Bassus the most honourable epistrategos, and the matter having been referred to his highness the prefect Petronius Mamertinus, I ask that through one of your attendants a copy of this summons be served on Posis and Kronion, so that they may know that they must appear before the most sacred tribunal of his highness the prefect wherever he holds the assize or court of justice of the nome, for the hearing of the matter. I, Herakleides, assigned by lot among the attendants, have served the above-written document as allotted to me, in the presence of Sabinus, face to face, as is proper. Year 19 of Hadrian Caesar the lord, Mecheir 3.
