Letter of Aḫu-lūmur (AL) to the High Priest (of Eanna, šatammu) and Nabû-aḫu-iddin (Royal Overseer, ša rēš šarri bēl piqitti), "his lord(s)", following up on a previous message sent by AL to the recipients about some people – he now informs the recipients that he got a hold of them and handed them over to Anu-aḫu-iddin. AL himself is serving with Aḫūšunu. The sender demands lots of people for recruitment.
