By the terms
of this decree, men of Athens, you
condemned to death the ambassadors named. One of them was Epicrates, who, as I
am informed by persons older than myself, was an honest, useful, and popular
politician, and one of the men who marched from Peiraeus and restored the
democracy.restored the democracy: under
Thrasybulus [Dem. 19.280],
403 B.C. （Grote, ch.
65.）. No such consideration availed him; and that was right,
for a man who accepts so important a mission is not to be virtuous by halves. He
must not use the public confidence he has earned as an opportunity for knavery;
his duty is simply to do you no wilful wrong at a
Demosthenes, Against Timocrates, section 133 (search)
I will
not mention very ancient instances, or any earlier than the archonship of
Eucleides403
B.C.; but I must observe that many men, who in their own generation
were highly esteemed for their earlier conduct, were nevertheless most severely
treated by the People for the offences of their later life. The commonwealth was
not content with a period of honesty followed by knavery, but expected
uninterrupted honesty in public dealings. The previous honesty of such a person
was not, in their view, attributable to innate virtue; it was part of a scheme
to attract confidence.
Demosthenes, Against Boeotus 2, section 32 (search)
Ah, but it may be said that he is a man who loves peace and
hates litigation. I could indeed wish, men of the jury, that he were a man of
that type. But here is the truth: you are so generous and so kind toward your
fellow-men that you did not deem it right to banish from the city even the sons
of the Thirty TyrantsIn 403 B.C.; but Boeotus, plotting against me with Menecles,
who is the prime mover in all these schemes, having managed to get up a quarrel
that from disputes and revilings should come to blows, cut his own head, and
summoned me before the Areopagus on a charge of murderous assault, with the
intention of driving me into exile from the city.

Demosthenes, Against Eubulides, section 30 (search)
Again, it is shown that he was born in a period when, even if he was an
Athenian on one side only, he was entitled to citizenship; for he was born
before the archonship of Hucleides.In the
archonship of Eucleides in 403 B.C., on the motion
of Aristophon, an old law of Solon's was revived and put into effect, which
declared that, in order to possess full civic rights, a man must be born of
parents both of whom were Athenians. The law was naturally not
retroactive.With regard to my mother
（for they make her too a reproach against me） I will speak,
and will call witnesses to support my statements. And yet, men of Athens, in reproaching us with service in
the market Eubulides has acted, not only contrary to your decree, but also
contrary to the laws whi

But you will recall
what was done, shortly before our own time, by Cephalus the orator, Thrason of
Herchia, Eleus and Phormisius and other fine men, some of whom are still alive
today.Cephalus assisted in the overthrow of
the Thirty in 403 B.C. His reputation as an orator
is acknowledged by Demosthenes （Dem.
18.219）. Cf. Din. 1.76. Of
the other three men little is known. Thrason is mentioned as a Theban
proxenus by Aeschines （Aeschin.
3.139）; Eleus is perhaps the trierarch （c.
323） whose name appears in an inscription （I.G. 2.812, b.
14）; Phormisius is a mere name. Cf. Aristot. Const. Ath. 34.3.
Some of them, when the Cadmea was garrisoned by Spartans, assisted the exiles
who r
403 B.C.When the events of this year had come to an end, Eucleides
was archon in Athens, and in Rome four military tribunes succeeded to the consular magistracy,
Publius Cornelius, Numerius Fabius, and Lucius Valerius.Most of the manuscripts add "and Terentius Maximus."
After these magistrates had taken office, the Byzantines were
in serious difficulties both because of factional strife and of a war that they were waging
with the neighbouring Thracians; and since they were unable to devise a settlement of their
mutual differences, they asked the Lacedaemonians for a general. The Spartans, accordingly,
sent them Clearchus to bring order to the affairs of the city; and he, after being entrusted with supreme authority, and having gathered a large body of
mercenaries, was no longer their president but their tyrant. First of all, he invited their
chief magistrates to attend a festival of some kind and put them to death, and after this,
