At Antioch, indeed, at various times many things were done, and very confusedly. For when Eudoxius had died, since many bishops of different cities strove for that see with the utmost ambition, at last they transferred Meletius thither from Sebaste, a city of Armenia, against the decrees of the council.

And a great multitude, following him when he had been driven from his see, was torn away from the fellowship of the heretics.
