Note 134 — Chapter I · —The Occasion of the Wars between Louis XI. and the Count of Charolois, afterwards Duke of Burgundy.—1464. (continued 2)

Louis XI., when Dauphin, fled in 1456 from Dauphiny, whither he had retired ten years previously on account of a misunderstanding with his father. He sought refuge in Burgundy from the authority of Charles VIII., who wished to force him to return to Court, and remained with his uncle Philip until 1461, when his father died.
