Against Aphobus III
Aphobus's brother-in-law, recipient of his farm and accused collaborator in procuring false witnesses.
For he has himself suborned men to bear false witness about these matters, having as co-workers his brother-in-law Onetor, and Timocrates;
On the contrary he has dispersed his property, giving his farm-buildings to Aesius and his farm to Onetor, against whom he has forced me to engage in a troublesome lawsuit.
Against Onetor I
The defendant, brother-in-law of Aphobus, accused by Demosthenes of falsely claiming a mortgage on land to shield Aphobus's property from a damages judgment.
Although I have so many proofs ready to hand it is Onetor himself who most convincingly showed that the divorce was not a genuine one.
I should have been most glad, men of the jury, had the difference which I have had with Aphobus, and also that in which I am now involved with this man Onetor, his brother-in-law, not come about.
Nor was it only at the trial that he acted thus, but after judgement had been rendered against Aphobus, he got up before the court and begged the jurymen, beseeching and imploring them on behalf of Aphobus with tears in his eyes, to fix the damages at a talent, and offered himself as surety for this amount.
Against Onetor II
The defendant, brother-in-law of Aphobus, accused of falsely claiming to have paid a marriage-portion in order to shield Aphobus's property from the speaker.
Aye, Onetor;
And this is what appears to me to be exactly the plight of Onetor.
This matter you should consider, not in the light of the proofs which I have advanced, but from the conduct of Onetor himself.
