Letter from Ptolema to Antas about the prefect's visit and farm business TM 28700ArsinoitesII

Ptolema to Antas her brother, greetings. […] you write to expect the prefect. Look, the prefect has gone upstream. If you can extricate yourself in good health, come quickly before the prefect, so that, if we can, we may get the little one examined (?). All the fields are in good condition. The embankment plot to the south of the seventeen (arouras) was sold for the cattle; your cattle grazed an aroura and went off to Pansoue. Everything there was left for the cattle. The plot to the west of the vegetable land was left for cutting hay. We have sold the fodder plots in the cleruchies beside the six embankment plots to the east for 112 drachmas. Hay is cheap at the moment (?). Three arouras were bought for you through Veteranius for hay for 130 drachmas, and sheep were also sold through him for 68 drachmas. Longinus and Sarapion and everyone at home greet you. Ouibis has gone to Psenyris to sell the wheat. All your people are doing well. Farewell. Mecheir 30.
