1. According to Per. XLIX, L. Scribonius and not Cato prosecuted Galba for his treacherous treatment of the Lusitanians. Cato, however, spoke against him (Cicero. de oratore I. 227; Brutus 89, etc.). This characterization raises once more the question of a special source dealing with Cato which Livy used (cf. XXXIV. xxi. 8; XXXVI. xxi. 4-6 and the notes). 11?? I see no reason — least of all the play on words mentioned in the preceding note — why this passage and the account of the censorship in the' following chapters should not have been derived from the same source. 12?? There seems to be nothing in this passage which Cato would not have regarded as a compliment and would not have been willing to say about himself.
