However, that it may
be the more clear to you, men of the jury, that in the former trial they got the
upper hand through their shameless audacity, and that they advanced no just
arguments, read all the depositions that remain.“DepositionsThe deponent
testifies that he is a relative of Polemon, the father of Hagnias, and that
he heard from his father that Philagrus, the father of Eubulides, and
Phanostratus, the father of Stratius, and Callistratus, the father of the
wife of Sosias, and Euctemon, who was king,1 and Charidemus, the father of Theopompus
and Stratocles, were first cousins to Polemon, their fathers all having been
brothers, and that Eubulides, with reference to his father Philagrus, stood
in the same degree of relationship as the sons of these men and Hagnias,
while with reference to his mother Phylomachê, he was recognized
as the first cousin of Hagnias on his father's side, since he was the son of
the paternal aunt of Hagnias.”
