However, both Suetonius (Caesar, 63 Archived 2012-05-30 at archive.today) and Cassius Dio (Roman History, 42.6) say that it was Lucius Cassius who surrendered to Caesar at the Hellespont.

In a letter written in 45 BC, Cassius says to Cicero, "There is nothing that gives me more pleasure to do than to write to you; for I seem to be talking and joking with you face to face" (Ad Fam., xv.19).
