In the mid third century BCE, Eumenes I — the founder-dynast of Pergamon, son of Philetairos — wrote to the council and people of his own city about five retiring generals: Palamandros, Skymnos, Metrodoros, Theotimos and Philinos. They had, he says, presided well over their office on every occasion. They governed justly; with the people's cooperation they managed honestly the public and the sacred revenues that fell in their year; and — the heart of the letter — they sought out the dues their predecessors had left uncollected and, sparing none who had held anything back, restored those sums to the city. They also saw to the repair of the sacred dedications, so that succeeding generals, following their good management, might administer the public funds usefully. Judging it right not to slight officials who so superintend the city, Eumenes resolved to crown them at the Panathenaia and asked the city to pass its own honorific decree (preserved as the answering decree, OGIS 267 II). It is the corpus's only document on the royal oversight of municipal finance — a Hellenistic text of fiscal accountability — and its earliest Attalid voice: the dynast endorsing, and the city ratifying, the honest stewardship of public money.公元前三世纪中叶，佩加蒙之奠基君主、菲莱泰罗斯之子尤墨涅斯一世，致书其本城议事会与公民，论五位退任将军：帕拉曼德罗斯、斯库姆诺斯、墨特罗多罗斯、忒奥提摩斯、菲利诺斯。其言：彼等于任内时时善理其职。秉公治事；与公民协力，诚信管理任内之公帑与圣帑；而 —— 此函之要 —— 查出前任所漏征之款，不宽贷任何扣留者，悉数归还城邦。彼等亦修缮神庙之献纳，俾后继将军循其善政而能有益地管理公帑。尤墨涅斯以为不当轻视如此尽职之官员，遂决意于泛雅典节为之加冠，并请城邦自行通过褒奖决议（即所存之答复决议 OGIS 267 II）。此为本集唯一论王权监督市政财政之文献 —— 希腊化财政问责之文 —— 亦其最早之阿塔罗斯之声：君主褒扬、城邦认可对公帑之诚信守护。
