Against Macartatus
Deceased man whose estate, house, kinship line, and burial associations are at issue.
The deponents testify that on being summoned by Sositheus they accompanied him to Araphen, to the lands of Hagnias, after Theopompus had had the estate of Hagnias adjudged to him, and that Sositheus showed them the olive trees being rooted up from the land of Hagnias.
To prove that I speak the truth in this, that they rooted up the olive trees from the farms which Hagnias left, I will produce for you as witnesses the neighbors and others whom we summoned, when we made a solemn protest against this action.
The thing which was of the greatest value on the farms belonging to Hagnias, and which was most admired by the neighbors and by everybody else, was the olive trees.
Apollodorus Against Polycles
A trierarch properly relieved and reimbursed by Mnesilochus.
But, since Phrasierides did not arrive to join the ship, Mnesilochus went to Thasos and took over the trireme from Hagnias, and paid to Hagnias what the latter convinced him was due for the expenses he had incurred on their behalf while serving as trierarch beyond his time, and hired from Hagnias the ship’s equipment, and assumed himself the duties of trierarch.
On the Estate of Hagnias
Athenian citizen whose estate, left without direct heirs after the death of his adopted daughter, becomes the subject of successive lawsuits among his cousins and half-brother.
The daughter whom Hagnias had adopted also died, and Glaucon received the estate in accordance with the will.
When he was at the point of death he adopted a daughter, stipulating in his will that, if anything should happen to her, the estate should pass to Glaucon, who was his half-brother, his mother's son.
Hagnias, Eubulides, Stratocles, Stratius, the brother of Hagnias's mother, and I, gentlemen, are all the children of cousins, our fathers having been cousins, the children of brothers by the same father.
