Demosthenes, Against Midias, section 167 (search)
All
the other donors of war-galleys convoyed you when you sailed back from
Styra; Meidias alone took no part
in the convoy, but, without a thought for you, he was bringing fences and cattle
and door-posts for his own house and pit-props for his silver-mines, and so his
command has proved, not a public service, but a lucrative job for this
detestable creature. However, to prove to you the truth of my statements, though
most of the facts are known to you, I will nevertheless call witnesses.
Demosthenes, Against Midias, section 168 (search)
Witnesses[We, Cleon of Sunium, Aristocles of
Paeania, Pamphilus, Niceratus of Acherdus, and Euctemon of Sphetta, on the
occasion when we sailed home from Styra with the entire force, were commanders of triremes
along with Meidias, who is now being prosecuted by Demosthenes, for whom we
appear as witnesses. When the whole fleet was sailing in formation and the
commanders had instructions not to separate until we landed at Athens, Meidias lagged behind the fleet
and loaded his ship with timber and fencing and cattle and other things, and
sailed alone into Peiraeus two days later, and did not join with the other
commanders in bringing the force to land.]
