Wooden Tag for Bag containing Military Clothing

The writing on this tag has faded over time and is now indistinguishable to the naked eye. Its traces can only be made out under infra-red light. The tag explains that the attached bag (now lost) contains both private and official clothing for a frontier guardsman from Huai-yang. After these clothes were placed in the bag it was closed with a rope that also secured this tag. Clay was then placed in the tag's mould onto the rope and impressed with a seal.
