This plot of ground belonged to Peisander; but when his property was confiscated, Apollodorus of Megara had it as a gift from the people[*](Peisander was a leader in the revolution of the Four Hundred (411 B.C.) and his property was fortified on the counter-revolution of the Five Thousand in the same year; Apollodorus was rewarded for taking part in the assassination of Phrynichus, another of the Four Hundred.) and cultivated it for some time, until, shortly before the Thirty,[*](404 B.C.) Anticles bought it from him and let it out. I bought it from Anticles when peace had been made.[*](After the fall of the Thirty and on the intervention of Sparta, 403 B.C.)
