The business of the third session was the trial of Dioscorus. The accuser was Eusebius, and petitions were presented against him from Alexandria also, ac- cusing him of acts of persecution, avarice, and a vicious life. After being summoned several times by the council and evading the citations, he at last finally and determinately refused to come. "What I have spoken, I have spoken, " he said ; " I have nothing to add to it.
