Quod consilium clam agitanti litterae redduntur, Harpalum intrasse quidem Athenas, pecunia conciliasse sibi principum animos; mox, concilio plebis habito iussum urbe excedere ad Graecos milites pervenisse, navibus inde Cretam transvectum, amico quodam auctore interemptum  per insidias.
As he was secretly considering this plan, a letter was delivered to him, saying that Harpalus had in fact entered Athens, and by his money had won the support of the leading men but that presently, after an assembly of the people had been held, he was ordered to leave the city and had taken refuge with his Greek soldiers; then he had crossed to Crete in his ships and at the instigation of a friend had been treacherously slain.
