A receipt-like acknowledgment in which Horos son of Stotoetis tells Tesenouphis son of Tesenouphis that he holds 132 silver drachmas as interest on an existing loan, covering the period from Choiak of the previous 22nd year to Mesore of year 2 of Antoninus Pius. It was written in the Arsinoite nome on 14 April 139.
The 'past 22nd year' refers to the last regnal year of Hadrian (AD 137/138). The final clause is elliptical; the sense seems to be that interest will also be due if repayment is not made by Mesore.
