Deposition of Rēḫêtu/Arad-Innin, temple oblate (širku) and plowman (ikkāru), to Nabû-mukīn-apli, bishop (šatammu) of Eanna, and Nabû-aḫu-iddin, royal representative (ša rēš šarri) and commissioner (bēl piqitti) of Eanna. He confesses that he has been on the run since Cyr. 08 from Šamaš-mukīn-apli/Sîn-nādin-šumi’s team, himself a temple oblate, but was found by Gimillu/Innin-šumu-ibni in Camb. V-00 and rented by the latter to Sîn-ibni/Nabû-zabad. The latter confirms the arrangement and specifies that it was for 5 shekels of silver per year. But Gimillu then proposed the same engagement to Nabû-nādin/Erībāya, administrator (bēl piqitti) of the village of Ša-kī-Nabû. The message itself is presented and stored.
