In P Oxy X. 1274.6 (iii/A.D.) a widow announces the appointment of a representative to act for her—ἐπεὶ ἀπευκταίας μ [ο ]ι καταγγελείσης φα ̣σ ̣[ε ]ω ̣ς περὶ τελευτῆς τοῦ μακαρείτου μου ἀνδ [ρός, ";in consequence of the lamentable news announced to me concerning the death of my blessed husband"; (Edd.). The official sense of the word ";make proclamation with authority,"; which appears in its NT occurrences (see Westcott on 1 John 1:5), is very evident in such a psephisma as Syll 364.5 (A.D. 37) ἐπεὶ ἡ κατ᾽ ε ̣ὐχὴν πᾶσιν ἀνθρώποις ἐλπισθεῖσα Γαΐου Καίσαρος Γερμανικοῦ Σεβαστοῦ ἡγεμονία κατήνγελται. . . ἔδοξεν τῇ βουλῇ κτλ.
