τὸν δὲ ἕτερον, ὅτῳ μηδέν ἐστιν ἐπίγραμμα, μνημονεύουσιν ὡς Ἀριστοτέλης ἐστὶν ὁ ἐκ τῶν Θρᾳκίων Σταγείρων, καὶ αὐτὸν ἤτοι μαθητὴς ἢ καὶ στρατιωτικὸς ἀνέθηκεν ἀνὴρ ἅτε παρὰ Ἀντιπάτρῳ καὶ πρότερον ἰσχύσαντα παρὰ Ἀλεξάνδρῳ.
The relative clause ὅτῳ μηδέν ἐστιν ἐπίγραμμα is dative-possessive ('for which there is no inscription'); ὡς introduces reported identification. The final participle ἰσχύσαντα is accusative masculine singular, agreeing with αὐτόν and describing the man as previously influential with Alexander; ἤτοι ... ἢ ... coordinates possible agents, with ἀνέθηκεν as the finite predicate.
