Leodamas

As a result of this acquaintance I enjoyed the same intimacy with Timarchus as with Leodamas previously.

For he will come up here to the witness stand, I suppose, trusting in his record, honorable and upright man that he is, an enemy of all evil-doing, a man who does not know who Leodamas was—Leodamas, at whose name you yourselves raised a shout as the affidavit was being read.
