In English machine translation

To Aurelius Heras son of Dionysios, former magistrate, councillor of the illustrious and most illustrious city of the Oxyrhynchites, praepositus of the 8th pagus, from the Aurelii Patereus son of Menches, tesserarius, and Pausiris son of Flavius and Horion son of Menches, both komarchs, of the same village of Kesmouchis in the pagus under you. We nominate, at our own risk, for the collection of meat and chaff, men who are well-off and suitable for the service. They are the Aurelii: collector of meat, Thonis son of Menches; collector of chaff, Pantheros son of Amois. In the consulship of Caecinius Sabinus and Vettius Rufinus, the most illustrious, Pauni […]. We, the Aurelii Patereus and Pausiris and Horion, have submitted this. I, Aurelius Apollophanes, having been asked, wrote on their behalf since they do not know letters.

This is a duplicate copy of the same nomination. The tesserarius and komarchs were village officials responsible for local liturgies; the praepositus pagi administered a district of the nome.
