Against Macartatus
Deceased man whose estate, house, kinship line, and burial associations are at issue.
Do they appear to you, men of the jury, to belong in any sense to the house of Hagnias, except that they have seized and hold what does not belong to them?
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.
Hagnias, it is true, was not our 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.
