The government of the Ten, who had succeeded the Thirty, was then in control when
 Patrocles, a friend of mine, was the King-Archon, The most
 important of the Athenian nine archons was not the King-Archon, as the name might
 suggest, but the Archon Eponymus, who gave his name to the year in which he held office.
 The King-Archon had charge of public worship and the conduct of certain criminal
 processes. and with him one day I happened to be walking. Patrocles, an enemy of
 Callimachus who is now prosecuting me in this suit, met him as he was carrying a sum of
 money, laid hold of him, and claimed that this money had been left by Pamphilus and
 belonged to the government; for Pamphilus was a member of the party of the Piraeus. Cf. Isoc. 18.2 note 1. 
 Callimachus denied this and as a violent quarrel ensued many others came running up;
 among them by chance Rhinon, who had become one of the Ten, approached. So Patrocles
 immediately laid information with him concerning the money and Rhinon led them both before
 his colleagues. These officials referred the matter to the Council During the rule of the Thirty, and of their successors the Ten, the judicial
 functions of the Athenian juries were usurped by the Council. ; after an
 adjudication, the money was declared the property of the state.
