End of a petition by Aurelia Soteira, also called Hesychion, asking an official to order someone to collect what was found owing to her according to the report of those who made a measurement. It ends with an official note mentioning the strategos and a filing reference to sheet 233 of a roll, from Oxyrhynchus in the 3rd or 4th century AD.
The final lines are an archival note: the petition was glued into a roll (tomos) of sheets (kollemata), here sheet 233. The beginning of the petition, including the addressee and the complaint, is lost.
