       162</date>. During the comitia for his election the leader of the centuria praerogativa died,
      and the haruspices declared the election void. Tib. Sempronius Gracchus, however, the consul
      who presided at the comitia, maintained their validity, and Figulus departed to his province,
      Cisalpine Gaul. But afterwards Gracchus wrote to the senate that he had himself committed an
      error in taking the auspices, and Figulusresigned the consulship. (Cic. <hi rend="ital">de

      camp to be forced by the Dalmatae, but afterwards, in a winter campaign, he successively took
      their smaller towns, and finally their capital, Delminium. (<bibl n="Plb. 32.24">Plb.
