4. SER. SULPICIUS GALBA was curule aedile in B. C. 188, in which year he dedicated twelve gilt shields in the temple of Hercules, out of the fines which he and his colleague had exacted. In the year following he was appointed praetor urbanus, and supported M. Fulvius in his demand of a triumph. In B. C. 185, he was a candidate for the consulship, but without success. (Liv. 38.35, 42, 39.5, 32.)
