In English machine translation

To Eudoros, strategos of the Themistos and Polemon divisions of the Arsinoite nome, from Kronion son of Pakebkis, elder, from the village of Tebtynis. On the 25th of the present month Hathyr, Lysas, secretary of the farmers, having no business with me, brought against me Pankras, an assistant, and entering my house he carried off a cloak of skyrinos (?) colour and another scarlet one and […] and […] and […] artabas of barley […] […] […]

The colour term skyrinos is rare and its exact meaning is uncertain. The list of seized items breaks off and the end of the petition is lost.
