Translation
"7th consulship of our lord Constantinus Augustus and 1st of our lord Constantius, the most courageous Caesar, Thoth 10, in the Arsinoite nome.
Aurelius Pemes, son of Patas and Tanouphion, from the village Karanis of the same nome, 45 years of age, with a scar on his right shin, acknowledges that he has received in loan from Antonius Sarapammon, formerly prytanis, councillor of the same city, the capital sum of forty-six talents and four thousand drachmas in silver coinage of the Augusti, total 46 tal. 4,000 dr., for eight months, free of additional interests. And the party of the first part, Pemes, shall of necessity return this money to Sarapammon on the ninth of the month Pachon of the coming consulship. If the party of the first part fails to make return when the due date has arrived, he shall be subject to the interest fixed thereon; and on demand Sarapammon shall have right of execution against both the party of the first part Pemes and against all his property as if in consequence of a court decision, When asked the formal question I [sic] so declared.
(2nd hd.) I, Aurelius Pemes, son of Patas, acknowledge that I have received and owe the forty-six talents and four thousand drachmas of silver, and these I shall return on the date due without additional interest. But if I fail to return them, I shall furnish the interest for the excess time as stated. I, Aurelius Neilos, son of Heron, wrote on his behalf, as he is illiterate."
(docket on verso, 1st hd.): "Note of hand of Pemes, son of Patas, from Karanis, for the capital sum of 35 talents, plus 11 talents 4,000 dr. for eight months' interest. Repayment Pachon 9."
