Letter from Apphous to Phoibammon about correspondence with Apa Kollouthos TM 36872Oxyrhynchos ?; Schreibort: Herakleopolis ?VI - VII

[recto] From […] † The most pious Apa Kollouthos the presbyter, who lives on the mountain of the Oxyrhynchites, has written letters to me containing a clear purport, which your brotherliness will learn when, God willing, a meeting of your excellence takes place with his piety. And I wrote back to his godliness through Makarios, our messenger (symmachos), who was sent to the Oxyrhynchite nome with the servants of the most eloquent Sarapion the scholastikos. May you therefore deign to take care and have the letters delivered, and receive a favourable answer, and have a fitting reply written, and, if need be, obtain security regarding what I have written to him and give it in turn; and besides, may letters of your prudence be sent to me, so that I may arrange myself according to what is written by it, and may you order and command whatever you need of things here. Do not hesitate, master. [verso] † Deliver to my master, the in all respects most admirable and virtuous brother Phoibammon, assistant (boethos) of the account office (?), from Apphous.
