Translation

convex
1To Apollodoros
2from Patous,
3son of Pachois. I am making an offer for the lease
4of the land of Pinyris,
5son of Esphenis, and
6of Berenepthis, son of Es-
7phenis, and of Psintaes,
8son of Esphenis, from which they
9were released
10(and) which was sold in auction
11by Milon, in the size of 30 arourai,
12situated in Tmoun-
13psobothis. Since they
14still owe debts
15to the treasury, and have not
16yet paid
17to the royal
18bank, I beg of you
19to let come
20Milon before you and
21to order him (to transfer the land to me?), so that
22a profit is gained for
23the king.
24Farewell.
