- ...Cn. Aufidius.
- ...P. Lentulus.
CAssiodorus setteth downe for Consuls this yeere, Cn. Aufidius, and P. Lentulus. The Si∣cilian registers have Lentulus and Orestes. Eu∣tropius, Cornelius Lentulus and Cn. Ausidius Orestes. This Cn. Ausidius Orestes, when hee went beside a tribuneship of the commons, was chosen Consull, as Cicero writeth in his orati∣on for Plancius. This is that P. Lentulus surna∣med Sura, who afterwards, beeing a man of Consular calling, and who had been twice Pre∣tour, was hanged and strangled to death when Cicero was Consull, for that he had conspired with Catilin: whose grandfather was P. Lentu∣lus Presedent of the Senate, as Cicero saieth, pleading for his house, and inveighing against Catilin: as also Paedianus.
