ἀνὴρ γεγονὼς Cf. § 10 δοκιμασθέντος Πασικλέους.

ἐκομίζετο κ.τ.λ. ‘Was getting in an account of the guardianship,’ i.e. the accounts from his guardians. Or. 27, κατ: Ἀφόβου ἐπιτροπῆς, § 50 πότερον ἐπιτροπευθεὶς ἀπεδέξατ: ἂν τοῦτον τὸν λόγον παρὰ τῶν ἐπιτρόπων;

τούτῳ...τούτου It is best to refer these pronouns to Pasicles (with Reiske, Kennedy and Dareste); not to Apollodorus (with G. H. Schaefer). The sense is: ‘Assuming Apollodorus hesitated with his own lips to accuse his mother of destroying the documents; at any rate, when Pasicles came of age and was in course of receiving the report of his guardians' administration, is there any one who, under the circumstances, would not have stated the fact to his younger brother, and by his instrumentality had the matter investigated?’

ὅπως ἠλέγχθη inf. § 47 ἵνα ‘that so they might have been proved true or false,’ &c.

πολλὰ χρήματ᾽ εἰσπέπρακται ‘He has succeeded in recovering large sums of money.’ The famous general, Timotheus, under pressure of political exigencies, in the years 374 to 372 B.C., borrowed more than forty-four minae from the banker Pasion, on whose death his son Apollodorus sues Timotheus for payment in a speech still extant, belonging probably to the year B.C. 362. (Or. 49, πρὸς Τιμόθεον ὑπὲρ χρέως.) Cf. infr. §§ 36 and 54.
