Abstract: 4 Ascon.In Milonianam 52 C.: Significasse iam puto nos fuisse inter leges P. Clodi, quas ferre proposuerat, eam quoque, qua libertini, qui non plus quam in IIII tribubus suffragium ferebant, possent in rusticis quoque tribubus, quae propriae ingenuorum sunt, ferre.5 Cf.e.g. A. C. Clark, M. Tulli Ciceronis Pro T. Annio Milone ad iudices oratio.Edited with Introduction and Commentary, Oxford 1895, xvii, 28, 78; Berry (above n. 3) 270, who cites S. Treggiari, Roman Freedmen during the Late Republic, Oxford 1969, 49-50, 164-66.6 Cf.Berry (above n. 3) 270; S. Treggiari, "A New Collina", Historia 19 (1970) 121-22, at 122. 7 Cf.e.g.N. H. Watts, Cicero: The Speeches, with an English Translation, Pro T. Annio Milone, in L. Calpurnium Pisonem, Pro M. Aemilio Scauro, Pro M. Fonteio, Pro C. Rabirio Postumo, Pro M. Marcello, Pro Q. Ligario, Pro Rege Deiotaro, London / Cambridge, Mass.1931 (Loeb), 104 and 106, who regards the first statement as an exaggeration and comments on the second: "Clodius may have projected some scheme of extensive manumission; though we need not infer that C.'s statement rests on anything more solid than popular rumour"
