For touching the advancement of Clearchus unto the Proconsular government he writeth thus. bThings prosperously succeeding, Valens was wonderfully well pleased with Clearchus, and was so far from depriving him of his former charge, that he advanced him unto a greater ⟨p. 17⟩government; appointing him to be Proconsul of Asia now properly so called. This from Pergamus downwards taking the sea-coast into it, toward the adjacent continent reacheth unto Caria; the mountain Tmolus circumscribing that of it which belongeth unto Lydia. Of the governments it is the most honourable; and is not subject to the Praefectus Praetorio. saving that now, by reason of these late commotions, call things are again confounded and disturbed.
