Opening of a loan acknowledgement in which an Aurelius from a hamlet (epoikion) declares to a city councillor that he owes him something. It is dated by the consulship following the 4th of Arcadius and 3rd of Honorius, in March 397, probably at Oxyrhynchus.

In English machine translation

After the consulship of our masters Arcadius for the 4th time and […] Honorius for the 3rd time, the eternal Augusti, Phamenoth 10 (?) […] […] to […], councillor of the illustrious […] […] from Aurelius […] […] of the hamlet […] […] greetings. I acknowledge that I owe […] […] […]

Only the dating clause, address and opening formula survive, so the amount and terms of the loan are lost. The provenance is uncertain.
