Against Aphobus II Demosthenes 1 citation · 4 passages
Speaker repeatedly invokes the missing will as the authoritative source that would prove the true disposition of the estate.
Strangest of all is it that, though they allege that my father would not permit them to let the property, they should never produce this will from which one could have learned the truth, and that having destroyed so important a piece of evidence, they should expect you to believe them on their mere word.

Against Aphobus III Demosthenes 1 citation · 2 passages
This event captures the reporting of the father's will as an authoritative legal document whose contents are invoked as proof.
For although my father, men of the jury, wrote a will containing an inventory of all that he left, with instructions for letting the property, this will Aphobus never gave up to me, lest I should learn from it the value of the estate, and admitted possessing only those items which were so well known that he could not deny that he had them.
