This
denunciation, men of the jury, was lodged by the defendant after he had cited
Micon to appear. It was received by Euthyphemus, the secretary of the overseers
of the port, and was exposed to public view for a long time in front of the
meeting-place of the board, until this fellow was bribed to allow it to be
crossed out, just when the magistrates were summoning him for the preliminary
hearing.To prove that these statements of
mine are true, call first Euthyphemus, who was secretary of the board.“
