Note 86 — Chapter I · —The Occasion of the Wars between Louis XI. and the Count of Charolois, afterwards Duke of Burgundy.—1464.
Reading edition
Simon de Quingy was, in 1471, cup-bearer, and in 1472 gentleman of the bed-chamber, to the Duke of Burgundy. Molinet speaks of him as “Lord of Montbaillon.” According to Commines, he became Bailiff of Troyes; and perhaps it is he who figures, with the title of “knight of the court of Parliament,” among the plenipotentiaries sent to Saint-Jean-de Lône, in the year 1515, by the Archduchess Philiberte of Luxembourg.
