. Republican Rome; her conquests, manners and institutions from the earliest times to the death of Caesar . nst all attacks, and share equally whateverspoils or booty are won by their common arms. Let allprivate suits be settled within ten days, and let all such casesbe tried in whatsoever town the affair giving rise to the suitmay have occurred. The chief mover in this importanttransaction was the same Spurius Cassius who had triumphedover the Sabines, and who afterwards fell a victim to his zealfor agrarian reform.

The position of thesehardy and valiant mountaineers made their alliance pecuHarlyvaluable, for they interposed a living barrier between theAequians on the north and the Volscians on the south, dimi-nishing the danger of combined action on the part of these twopeoples, and securing to the Romans early information of anymovement preparing on either side against them. * vi. 95-68.
