      oligarchical party. When, in <date when-custom="-393">B. C. 393</date>, the democrats in Corinth
      massacred nmaun of their adversaries, who, they had reason to think, were contemplating the
      restoration of peace with Sparta, Pasinlelus, having had some suspicion of the design, was in
      a gymnasium outside the city walls, with a body of young men assembled around him. With these
      he seized, during the tumult, the Acrocorinthus ; but the fail of the capital of one of the
      columns, and the adverse signs of the sacrifices, were omens which warned them to abandon
      their position. They were persuaded to remalin in Corinth under assurances of personal safety;
      but they were dissatisfied with the state of public affairs, especially with the measure which
      had united Argos and Corinth, or rather had merged Corinth il Argos; and Pasimelus therefore
      iand Alcilenes sought a secret interview with Praxitas, the Lacedaemonian commander at Sicyon,
      and arranged to admliit him with his forces within the long walls. that connected (orinth with
      its port Lechaeutn. This was effected, and a battle ensued, in which Praxitas defeated the
      Corinthian, Boeotian, Arive, and Athenian troops (<bibl n="Xen. Hell. 4.4">Xen. Hell.

      Pasimells, no doubt, was one of the Corinthian exiles who returned to their city when the
      oligarchical party regained its ascendancy there immediately after the peace of Antatlcidas,

      having sent to Corinth for him, delivered up to the Lacedaemonians the harbour of Sicyon, ill
