Fragment of a letter

(?)

A fragment of a letter from certain Greeks, who had been sent to work in or take charge of some vineyards, asking to be released from part of their task or to have more guards given to them. The last lines show that it was sometimes difficult to make the natives work in conjunction with the foreigners.
