[10]
To him there was born a daughter,
Cleitomachê by name, whom he wished to give in marriage to his own
brother, who was still unmarried; but since Archiades declared that he did not
wish to marry, and for this reason allowed the property to remain undivided, and
lived by himself in Salamis, Meidylides
at length gave his daughter in marriage to Aristoteles of
Pallenê,1 my grandfather. Of them were born three
sons, Aristodemus here, my father, and Habronichus, my uncle, and Meidylides,
who is now dead. Our right of inheritance, based on kinship in the family to
which the estate belongs, is, men of the jury, substantially this.
1 Pallenê was a deme of the tribe Antiochis.
