Aeschines, pp. 15 ff. and that Against Ctesiphon, Ibid. pp. 303 ff. and these alone are genuine, since the one entitled the Delian Oration is not by Aeschines; for he was, to be sure, appointed associate advocate in the trial relating to the sanctuary at Delos, but he did not deliver the speech; for Hypereides was elected in his place, as Demosthenes says.Demosthenes, xviii. (On the Crown) p. 271, 134. He had, as he himself says,Aeschines, On the False Legation, 149. two brothers, Aphobetus and Philochares. He was the first to bring to the Athenians the news of the victory at Tamynae, for which he was crowned a second time.
