(Date of reception: About 21st July, 257 BC)

The author is Philon the baker, who according to the docket writes about payment for work and informs Zenon that he has sent him an artaba and a half of flour. Other matters were apparently mentioned in the letter, but we have at present only a fragment, the right half and the lower part being still missing.
