    • The Senate allotted him the province of Africa (Caes. BC 1.30.2; Cic. Lig. 21; Schol. Gron. 291 Stangl), according to his son, merely to buy grain (Quintil. Inst. Or. 11. 1. 80). He was excluded from Africa by P. Attius Varus, and went off to Pompey (Caes. BC 1.31; Cic. Lig. 21-29; Pompon. Dig. f.2.2.46; Oros. 6.15.7; Schol. Gron. 291 Stangl; Schol. Bern. on Lucan 4.667, p. 145 U). (Broughton MRR II)

    • 2 On Aelius Tubero, Cotta (perhaps but not certainly referred to in QF 3.8.6, where Ms reading Gutta is emended to Cotta, as a possible candidate for the consulship of 52), and Postumius, see Hölzl 66f., Stella Maranca 332; and Wehrmarm 68, on Domitius, 71, on Cotta and Tubero, and 72, on Fannius. Nonius Sufenas, Fannius, Voconius, and Sestius are named in Cic. Att. 8.15.3, all with imperium in March of 49, and Postumius was in February directed to succeed Furfanius in Sicily (Att. 7.15.2). On Postumius, who was temporarily prominent between 51 and 49, see Sall. Ad Caes. 2.9.4, now dated with probability by Carlson to 51 B. C. (Eine Denkschrift an Caesar 4ber den Staat [Lund, 1936] 12-26). (Broughton MRR II)
    • See Cic. Sest. 113-114; Vat. 38; Schol. Bob. 135 Stangl. (Broughton MRR II)
    • The appearance of the members of this group as Promagistrates in various provinces and commands in 49 after the passage of Pompey's law making mandatory an interval of five years between the city magistracy and the provincial command, suggests that they had held the praetorship by or before 54 B. C. Fannius at least had good prospects of attaining the praetorship when he was referred to in 56 (see above). It is not clear how far the emergency caused exemptions from the law in 49, nor does it appear to have applied to the magistrates in office in 52. (Broughton MRR II)
    • Insert, with the following entries: Leg., lieut. Asia 61-59, Pr.?, Promag., assigned to Africa 49, Cic. Lig. 21-22. (RS, CP) (Broughton MRR III)
