Again we protested that the demesmen should give
their votes only when the inheritance suit should have been decided, and not
before; and to this they agreed, not on their own responsibility, but out of
respect for the laws; for it seemed to them an outrageous thing that a man who

as a son while the matter was still undecided; but the thing which this fellow
Leostratus contrived after this is the most outrageous of all.
