great statesmen, warriors, etc.

about a citizen of Athens named
Demetrius. He says Demetrius
was a small, unassuming man,
who belonged to a good family.
He married very young, and his
wife turned out to be the kind OF
woman who makes a slave of
her husband. The one horror OF
Demetrius, Plutarch says, was
kin. His wife knew it, and,
during their engagement. prom,
ised Demetrius that HER kin
would never trouble him.
After a year or to of married
life, Demetrius noticed that his
wife's mother Ga widow was at
the house a good deal. He in
vsstigated, and found she had
given up her own home, and
was living with him; his wife
had slipped her in. Demetrius
was angry, bat said nothing,

his wife made her appearance

of his wife began visiting them
months at a time, and ended by
remaining. His wife had a
worthless brother who stayed
around a good deal, and finally

Demetrius became a silent man.
He spoke to no one. His wife
died at the age 60, and everyone
said: There will be a grand
kin clearing at the home of
Den etrius after his wife's
funeral" They watched for the
procession of kin to leave the
house, but Demetrius had the
kin habit: the kin remained.
They treated their benefacto.
like a dog. They complained
about the food set before them;
they said Demetrius should en-
large and improve the house;
they said he never took them on
trips; that they had not been
outside of Athens for years, and
they gave him such a bad repu-
tation for meanness, cruelty,
stinginess and dishonesty that
the citizens of Athens talked of
ostracizing him. CA custom of
that time was to Danish a citi-
zen who misbehaved, and it was
called ostracism J But before
the kin succeeded in ostracizing
Demetrius, he was stricken with
an illness, and died. Plutarch
says he Undoubtedly did of ne
glect. although twelve of his
wife's kin were members of his
family at the time.
After the funeral, the law
gave the home Of Demetrius q
kin cleaning. He had left a
will. and, according to the law
of Athens, his wife's kin could
not inherit. The kin We're in q
terriable rage over the neglec,
of Demetrius to provide fol

Plutarch says that had Deme.
,rius practised, all the vices of q
profligate age, his life could moi
have been more utterly wrecked
than it was wrecked by kin.
