Consuls
Broughton: Lentulus, with the eventual support of his colleague, who had been an enemy of Cicero, worked loyally for Cicero's recall from exile (a), and carried a bill for his restoration through the centuriate assembly (b). Lentulus also aided Cicero to recover his house (c). The Consuls drew up a bill to place Pompey in charge of the grain supply (d). Metellus impeded Milo's attempt to prosecute Clodius and aided the latter's candidacy for the aedileship (e).

Aediles
Broughton: Broughton: Gave splendid gladiatorial games in honor of his adoptive father (a). Münzer (Hermes 40 [1905] 94-99) explains the delay of six years in the celebration of the games for Metellus by assuming that Metellus Scipio waited to give them as Aedile (cf. Caesar's games in 65 in honor of his father), and notes his association in office, distinction, and ancestry with Fabius Maximus. Both men appear to be mentioned in Antoine de la Sale's quotations from Cicero's Do Virtutibus (F. Gustafisson, BPhW 24 [1904] 1278f.). Münzer (RE Supb. 3.223, on no. 99) also cites Knoellinger, Cicero, De Virt. 28, 10ff., and 49f., which I have not seen.

Quaestors
Broughton: Quaestor 57? Caelius' curule aedileship in 50 and his praetorship in 48 suggest that, unless he had won some special exemption, he was born in 88 and Pliny (a) is mistaken in making him and Calvus the same age. His quaestorship is not explicitly mentioned, and Austin thinks it was omitted (b), but this office, almost without exception, was the beginning of a senatorial career in the first century, whatever insignia or distinctions his successful prosecution of the consular C. Antonius may have given him. As Sumner has noted, Cicero states that he was already at the age for candidacy in 58 (c), and in 56 the hinting of his prosecutors that he had engaged in ambitus (d) is consistent at least with candidacy in 59 or 58. See (e). But Cicero's silence regarding it is strange, and the possibility of an exemption remains. See H. E. Russell, Advancement in Rank under the Republic as a Reward for the Soldier and the Public Prosecutor (f).
