When Klearchos was civic leader (archōn), month of Skirophorion. Kantharion made the following motion:
The society members (thiasōtai) resolved: Whereas the supervisors (epimelētai) have faithfully and ambitiously executed their responsibilities, both in regard to the sacrifices and all the other affairs of the association (koinon), it is resolved to commend them and to crown them with olive wreaths and to provide for them at the association’s expense a votive plaque in the amount of 20 drachmas. Both the crowns and the decree are to be inscribed on the plaque, so that all the others might know that the association renders appropriate thanks to those who are ambitious toward the members in acts of benefaction.
