A small fragment preserving the dating clause and the start of a subscription, in which Aurelius Horos son of Mersis states that he has submitted a document. It is dated by the post-consulate of Bassus and Ablabius, in the month Phamenoth, at Kellis in the Dakhla Oasis.

The verb 'have submitted' suggests the closing of a petition or declaration, but the document type itself is lost. The name Horos and the consular formula are largely restored.
