In the meantime Hymeas, who was likewise one of those by whom the
Ionians were pursued after their attack on Sardis, directing his
course towards the Propontis, took Cius, a city of Mysia.
Learning, however, that Daurises had left the Hellespont, and was
gone into Caria, he in his turn quitted the Propontis, and marching
with the army under his command to the Hellespont, reduced all the
Aeolians of the Troad, and likewise conquered the Gergithae, a
remnant of the ancient Teucrians. He did not, however, quit the
Troad, but, after gaining these successes, was himself carried off
by disease.
