To Flavius Joseph, city-councillor and riparius (river/embankment official) of the Oxyrhynchites, from Aurelius Abraamios son of Positos, from the same city.
The field-guards of the village of Paneuei, acting contrary to their responsibility, committed an outrage: three days ago, at night, after tearing off the iron fittings, they removed the yokes and the water-outlets/spouts.
Therefore, in order that those responsible may be brought in, that adequate satisfaction may be made to us, and that the presentation of the wrongdoers may take place according to the laws for their defense, I necessarily submit this petition to your excellence, requesting that those responsible be reported/produced and secured, until judgment takes place.
I, Aurelius Abraam, have submitted (it).
Petition of Aurelius Abraamios son of Positos, from the Oxyrhynchites, against the field-guards of the village of Paneueia, (dated) Thoth 3.
