C.
       461</date> to bear witness against K. Quintius, the son of L. Cincinnatus, and declared that
      soon after the plague he and his elder brother fell in with a party of patrician youths who
      came rushing through the Subura, when their leader Kaeso knocked down his brother, who was
      still feeble from the sickness he had just got over, and injured him so much that he died
      shortly afterwards. Dionysius makes Volscius tribune of the plebs in this year. In consequence
      of this testimony Kacsso was condemned. <pb n="1282"/> The patricians in revenge charged
      Volscius with falsehood ; and in <date when-custom="-459">B. C. 459</date> the quaestors accused him
      before the comitia of the curiae or the centuries, of having borne false witness against
      Kaeso, but the tribunes prevented them from prosecuting the charge. In the following year,
       <date when-custom="-458">B. C. 458</date>, L. Cincinnatus, the father of Kaeso, was appointed
      dictator, and presided in the comitia for the trial of Volscius. The tribunes dared not offer
      any further opposition, and Volscius was obliged to go into exile. (<bibl n="Liv. 3.13">Liv.
