Fragment of a Coptic letter on an ostracon from the Theban region. The writer asks the recipient not to hold back something, perhaps thirty items, because there is need, and to give them to his brother Cholo through Kyrikos.
In English machine translation
[…]
[…]
[…] do not leave [the thirty] (?), since it is the need. Give them to my brother Cholo through Kyrikos.
Farewell in the Lord.
[…]
The word restored as thirty is mostly lost, so the object or number concerned is uncertain. The opening of the letter and anything after the farewell are lost.
