Reading notes
- Ad Familiares 13.45 §1 His slave Anchialus
Anchialus is the slave (servus) of the knight L. Egnatius, sent to Asia on his master's business; Cicero commends both the slave and the affairs as if they were his own --- a measure of how far a recommendation could be stretched on a friend's behalf.
