Author Description

Excerpt from Cornell Studies in Classical Philology I wish to thank Professor George E. Howard, of the Leland Stanford Junior University, for the interest in the study of political and social institutions, which came to me from his instruction, and for the encouragement and help which I have constantly received from him. I also owe a great debt of gratitude to Professor Benj. I. Wheeler, of Cornell University, joint-editor of the Cornell Studies, for his valuable assistance.
