It was
then, in the archonship of Socratidas,1 in the month Munichion,2 when the defendant Timotheus was about to sail on his second
expedition and was already in the Peiraeus on the point of putting to sea, that,
being in want of money, he came to my father in the port and urged him to lend
him one thousand three hundred and fifty-one drachmae two obols, declaring that
he needed that additional sum; and he bade him give the money to his treasurer
Antimachus, who at that time managed everything for him.
