It was likewise resolved that the generals should undergo an inquiry with reference to their past conduct. When they presented their statements, Philesius and Xanthicles were condemned, for their careless guarding of the merchantmen’s cargoes, 1 to pay the loss incurred, namely, twenty minas, and Sophaenetus, for neglect of duty in the office to which he had been chosen, 2 was fined ten minas.
Accusations were also made against Xenophon by certain men who claimed that he had beaten them, and so brought the charge of wanton assault.
