Please call Phrastor of Aegilia.“DepositionPhrastor of Aegilia deposes that, when he learned that Stephanus had given
him in marriage a daughter of Neaera, representing that she was his own
daughter, he lodged an indictment against him before the Thesmothetae, as
the law provides, and drove the woman from his house, and ceased to live
with her any longer; and that after Stephanus had brought suit against him
in the Odeum for alimony, he made an arrangement with him on the terms that
the indictment before the Thesmothetae should be withdrawn, and also the
suit for alimony which Stephanus had brought against me.”
