Chalcidice.
The departure of the army from Peloponnese had been procured by the
Thracian towns in revolt against Athens and by Perdiccus, alarmed at the
successes of the Athenians.
The Chalcidians thought that they would be the first objects of an Athenian

Arriving in the dark a little before daybreak, he sat down with his army
near the temple of the Dioscuri, rather more than a quarter of a mile from
the city.
The rest of the town of Torone and the Athenians in garrison did not
perceive his approach; but his partisans knowing that he was coming (a few of them had
