[36]
From the seventy-seven minae, the
profits of the factory, the cost of maintenance of the men must be deducted, for
Therippides expended for this seven minae a year, and I admit having received
thus much. Thus they expended on our behalf in the ten years seventy minae for
maintenance; to this I add the balance, seven hundred drachmae, and thus credit
them with a larger expenditure than they do themselves. There must also be
deducted from the eight talents and more the sum they handed over to me when I
came of age, and the taxes which they have paid to the state.
