Note 49 — Chapter III · A BISHOP SENT BY THE POPE TO ROB GENEVA OF ITS INDEPENDENCE. (APRIL TO OCTOBER 1513.)
Reading edition
It has been supposed that he was brought up at Angers, but I found in the Archives of Geneva a letter addressed to John, dated 2nd September, 1513, by J. A. Vérard, a jurisconsult of Nice, wherein the latter congratulates the new bishop ‘inclitæ civitatis Gebennanum in qua cunabulis ab usque nutritus et educatus es.’ Archives de Genève, No. 870.
