The friends of Sthenius are moved; they hope that by the letters
and messengers of the father the Bon may be called off from his insane attempt. The
cause is not agitated any more in the senate. Family messengers come to Verres, and
bring him letters from his father before the first of December, before any steps
whatever had been taken by him in Sthenius's affair; and at the same time many
letters about the same business are brought to him from many of his friends and
intimates.
