[1] From an Athenian law quoted in Demosthenes 24.105. For the suit concerned, see generally S.C. Todd, The Shape of Athenian Law (Oxford 1993) 107-8 (and kappa 178).
2An inexact version of Demosthenes 24.103 (web address 1), which mentions only theft. For the suits concerned, see generally Todd 108. The aorist subjunctive of a(li/skomai should be spelled with an iota subscript in the third person singular: a(lw=|.
