Diodorus (xvi. 7) states that the contest in Eubœa lasted for some considerable time.
Demosthenes talks of the expedition as having reached its destination in three days, Æschines in five days; the latter states also that within thirty days the Thebans were vanquished and expelled (Demosthenes cont. Androtion. p. 597. s. 17; Æschines cont. Ktesiphont. p. 397. c. 31).
About Chares and the mercenaries, see Demosthenes cont. Aristokrat. p. 678. s. 206.
