Huius aemulatus exemplum Cassius filium suum Sp. Cassium, qui tribunus plebis agrariam legem primus tulerat, multisque aliis rebus populariter animos hominum amore sui devinctos tenebat, postquam illam potestatem deposuit, adhibito propinquorum et amicorum consilio adfectati regni crimine domi damnavit, verberibusque adfectum necari iussit, ac peculium eius Cereri consecravit.
Cassius emulated his example.His son as Tribune of the Plebs had been the first to propose an agrarian law and currying popular favour in many other ways held public sentiment attached to himself. When he laid down that office, his father summoned a council of relatives and friends and condemned him in his house on the charge of aiming to be king. He ordered him to be flogged and executed, and consecrated his property to Ceres.
