Note 1273 — Chapter II · RICHARD AND FRANCE 1194-1199
Reading edition
Cf. ib., with R. Coggeshall, 94, and W. Armor., Phil., lib. v. vv. 509-12. Gervase of Canterbury, i. 593, calls the place “Nantrun”; a mistake which is explained by a “Fragmentum aliunde assutum” to the chronicle of Geoffrey of Vigeois, Labbe, Thesaur., ii. 342, where we are told that Richard while lying sick before Châlus sent some of his troops to besiege two other castles in the Limousin, Nontron and Montagut.
