goods were saved in Pontus, the defendant, Lacritus, answered that one hundred
Cyzicene staters1 were saved; and that his
brother had lent this sum in gold in Pontus to a certain shipowner of Phaselis,
a fellow-countryman and friend of his; and that he was unable to get it back, so
that this also was as good as lost.
