Book 7
6.41
And Polycrates the Athenian said, at the instigation of Xenophon: Look you, fellow soldiers, I see Heracleides also present here, the man who took in charge the property which we had won by our toil, and then sold it, and did not pay over the proceeds either to Seuthes or to us, but stole the money, and is keeping it for himself. If we are wise, therefore, we shall lay hold of him; for this fellow, said he, is no Thracian, but a Greek, and yet he is wronging Greeks.
6.42
Upon hearing these words Heracleides was exceedingly terrified; and going up to Seuthes, he said: And if we are wise, we shall go away from here and get out of the power of these fellows. So they mounted their horses and went riding off to their own camp.
6.43
And after that Seuthes sent Abrozelmes, his interpreter, to Xenophon and urged him to stay behind with him with a force of a thousand hoplites, promising that he would deliver over to him not only the fortresses upon the coast, but also the other things which he had promised. He likewise said, making a great secret of it, that he had heard from Polynicus that if Xenophon should fall into the hands of the Lacedaemonians, he would certainly be put to death by Thibron.
