But what is it that they do? They report no return in interest for this money, and tell me that they have expended the entire principal together with the seventy-seven minae; and Demophon has, moreover, actually set me down as indebted to him.

Take now, and read them the evidence of those in whose presence they made their answers. The Depositions
