  • Aedilis 37 (Broughton MRR II) Expand
    • A popular election to the aedileship because he had saved his ill and aged father during the proscriptions (App. BC 4.41; Dio 48.53.4-6), so much so that when he refused the office because of poverty his expenses were defrayed by private contributions. (Broughton MRR II)
