But as matters have not turned out as my father expected, since the
money which Timotheus asked of my father and gratefully received from the bank
he is determined, now that my father is dead, to pay back only if forced to do
so by hostile legal procedure, and by convincing proof of his indebtedness, and,
if he can convince you by deceitful arguments that he is not liable, to rob us
of the money—I count it necessary to inform you fully of everything
from the beginning: the several loans, the purpose for which he expended each
sum, and the dates at which the obligations were contracted.
