Note 1046 — Chapter XIII · THE FEAST OF FOOLS
Reading edition
Boutiot, op. cit. i. 494, iii. 20. The chapters of St. Stephen’s and St. Urban’s and the abbey of St. Loup all continued to make payments for their feasts after 1445. They may have been pruned of abuses. In the sixteenth century the Comte of Champagne pays five sous to the ‘archevesque des Saulx’ at St. Stephen’s, and this appears to be the droit charged upon the royal demesne up to 1789.
