how many suitors does telemachus tell odysseus have taken over their house

"numberless"

"Hence it comes that my house is in the hands of numberless marauders; for the chiefs from all the neighbouring islands, Dulichium, Same, Zacynthus, as also all the principal men of Ithaca itself, are eating up my house under the pretext of paying court to my mother, who will neither say point blank that she will not marry, nor yet bring matters to an end, so they are making havoc of my estate, and before long will do so with myself into the bargain."

As I read through, I calculated that there were, at best count, one-hundred and fourteen (114) suitors.
