Footnote 601
From "Journal du Siège d'Orléans": "And by contrast [the battle of Patay] strengthened the courage of the French, who gathered at Orléans from all quarters, believing that the King would come there to prepare for his coronation journey..." (For the original language, see: Quicherat's "Procès...", Vol IV, p. 178).
Jean Chartier: "And thanks to Jehanne the Maiden, so many men from all quarters came to the King to serve him at their own expense, that people said that [Georges] de la Trémoille and other members of the King's council were angered that so many were coming there, out of fear for their safety." (For the original language, see: Quicherat's "Procès...", Vol IV, p. 71).
