Description
The document contains a declaration on oath, made by Aurelius Pambechis to the chief of the treasury of Oxyrhynchus. He ensures the chief against any loss or annoyance which he might incur by standing as surety for Pambechis on his appointment to an official post. Grenfell and Hunt speculate that such a guarantee by a public officer was a condition of such an appointment. The measurements of the fragment are 220 by 243 mm.

It was discovered by Grenfell and Hunt in 1897 in Oxyrhynchus. The text was published by Grenfell and Hunt in 1898.
