Letter from Apion to his father Ammonianos about payments and overdue money TM 33121OxyrhynchosIV

To my lord father Ammonianos, Apion, greetings. By divine providence I pray that you are in health and in good spirits as you receive my letter. Make haste, my lord father, to give to Horigas on account of the […] one myriad of myriads and 2,000 myriads, and on account of the great axle 1 solidus, 2,380 myriads; and have Choous, the assistant of Herakleios, provide to the same Horigas on account of the purple goods 2 solidi, […]780 myriads. And concerning Maxentios, I withheld his freight charge […] they say (?) […] and he objected that I had already […] paid him and had already settled accounts with him, and so I paid him in full. And concerning the supervision, we are amazed at you, how you neglect us, sitting in Alexandria, doing nothing and not sending the remainder of the money for which you signed a receipt, 21 (?); so, if you are sending the remainder, send it quickly; if not, write to us. Send the remainder of the acacia-wood (?) items in two mats. And concerning the two artabas of rolls (kollouria) of Serenos the centurion, which I wrote to you about, send them. Greet all our people by name. I pray for your health for many years.
