1Euphronios to Milon, greetings. Concerning the account of payments in money and kind
2to the temple in Apollonos polis magna, we have often written to you
3to send it to us, compiling from the very first time to the current year
4the payments per man and in which years they have been made.
5But you, until now finding excuses --- in every way, send them to us
6to Diospolis magna, so that we are not hindered to send the accounts
7to the city. What you have collected during your term(?), write to us at once, so that we know.
8Farewell. Year 25, Epeiph 2.
V
9To Milon.
