The massacre of St. Bartholomew

Note 695 — Chapter XIV · MASSACRE IN THE PROVINCES. [August to October, 1572.]

Reading edition

Ten leaves, probably containing an account of the massacre, are suspiciously torn out of the Actes Consulaires of the city. The Catholic historian says briefly: “Huit jours après, le même massacre fut fait à Lyon; je n’ai rien à dire là-dessus.” An expressive silence! Montfalcon, Hist. Lyon, ii. p. 685.
