To prove the truth of these statements of
mine, I will call before you as witness to these facts Theogenes himself, and
will compel him to testify.Call, please,
Theogenes of Erchia.1“DepositionTheogenes of
Erchia deposes that when he was king he married Phano, believing her to be
the daughter of Stephanus, and that, when he found he had been deceived, he
cast the woman away and ceased to live with her, and that he expelled
Stephanus from his post of assessor, and no longer allowed him to serve in
that capacity.”
