An order from Julius Diogenes to a receiver of wine, instructing him to give 18 jars of wine to the donkey-driver Horion as wages for his animals working at Pankylis. An earlier order, which Horion claimed to have lost, is declared void. It dates to the 3rd century AD, from Oxyrhynchus.

In English machine translation

From Julius Diogenes to Ischy[...], receiver of wine, greetings. Give to Horion, donkey-driver, on account of the wages for his animals carrying earth (?) at Pankylis, ten- eighteen jars of wine, total 18 jars, the previous order, which he says he has lost, being void. I have signed for the 18 jars of wine. Year 4, Phamenoth 5.

The receiver's name is abbreviated (Ischy-). The word read as 'carrying earth' (choφorountōn, for chōmatophorountōn or choophorountōn) is uncertain.
