For the arbitration took place
in the Heliaea,1 where those serving as
arbitrators for the Oeneïd and Erectheïd tribes hold their
sessions; and when challenges of this sort are given, and a party brings his
slave in person, and delivers him up for examination by the torture, hosts of
people stand forth to hear what is said; so that they would not have been at a
loss for witnesses, if there had been the least truth in the deposition.
1 The place for holding the sessions of the court of that name.
