Note 1145 — Chapter XII

This is shown by a passage in which the elector of Saxony makes mention of an alliance which the French nobles had offered (Archives de la maison d’Orange-Nassau, III, 131, 134). Although the prince of Condé in December declared that he had not entered into a treaty with the Flemish Calvinists (ibid., 143), it is probable that these proposals were accepted some months later. There is in existence the minute of a treaty with Condé and Coligny dated August, 1568 (ibid., III, No. 321, p. 285).
