Note 67 — XVII.—To Louis du Tillet.[62]
Reading edition

The newly-elected Syndics made common cause with the malcontents, and already gave signs of the forthcoming crisis which was to lead the way to the triumph of the party of the Libertins and the banishment of the Ministers.—Spon, Histoire de Genève, edit. 1730, tom. i. p. 276.
