And Boeotus, men of the jury, though
he was here at the time would not contest the suit, but declared that I had not
received the arbitrator's verdict against him, for his name was not Boeotus, but
Mantitheus; and thus, by quibbling about a name, he is in fact depriving me of
my mother's portion. As I was at a loss to know how one should deal with a
matter like this, I instituted the same suit afresh against him as Mantitheus,
and now in the eleventh year I have come to you for help.To prove that I am speaking the truth in this also, the clerk
will read the depositions dealing with these matters.“
