8. P. GABINIUS CAPITO (perhaps a son of No .7) was one of the most active of Catiline's accomplices. When questioned by Cicero, who sent for him after the arrest of the Allobrogian deputies, he at first boldly denied having had any communication with them. He was afterwards consigned to the custody of M. Crassus, and executed. He seems to be the same as C. Gabinius Cimber. (Sall. Bell. Cat. 17, 40, 44, 47, 55; Cic. in Cat. 3.3, 5, 6, 4.6.)
