Note 212 — Chapter IV · (continued 3)

See notice in the Revue Catholique for June, 1876, by M. Leyret, to whom the present paper is largely indebted. Those who wish for full information on the subject will find it in the Notice sur François de Bonivard, Prieur de St. Victor et sur ses Ecrits, par M. le Dr. Chapponniere (Mémoires de la Société d’Histoire et d’Archéologie de Genève, tome iv.), also in the Matériaux Historiques and the Notices Généalogiques of Galiffe (tome iii.), but above all in the remarkable work by Canon Magnin, now Bishop of Annecy, on Bonivard and the Chronicles of Geneva (Mémoires de l’Académie de Savoie, 2ème Séries, tome iii.) who by even his moderation, as well as the pitiless logic of facts, crushes the pseudo-confessor.
