Note 273 — Chapter III · MURAD THE OSMANLIS LAY THE FOUNDATIONS OF AN EMPIRE IN EUROPE

Chale., I, p. 30, and the chronicle of Rabbi Joseph, i. 240, confuse this battle with that of Cernomen, near the same place and with the same result, in 1370. But there were certainly two distinct battles. Louis of Hungary took part in the first, as is shown by the date recorded at Mariazell and by a diploma in Fejér, Cod. Dipl. Hung., 9e partie, vii. 212. Cf. Aschbach, Geschichte Kaiser Sigmunds, I. 87. The account in Vambéry’s Hungary, Story of Nations Series, p. 171, is wholly wrong.
