Statilius

6. STATILIUS, a young mall and a great admirer of Cato, was with him at Utica at the time of his death, and wished to follow his example, by putting an end to his own life, but was prevented by his friends from so doing. He served in the republican army after the death of Caesar, and fell at Philippi. (Plut. Cat. min. 65, 66, 73.)
