[245] Rome, June 1478, Med. Arch.

[246] Instructio pro. R. Card. Mantuano, &c. Copy without date. MSS. Capponi, cod. xxii. cat. no. 1230.

[247] Letter of the Doge Andrea Vendramin. Capponi MSS. cod. cccxiii.

[248] Romanin, l. c., iv. 390.

[249] Cronaca di Notar Giacomo, pp. 128-132. The statement of Barante (Histoire des ducs de Bourgogne, ‘Charles the Bold,’ b. iv.), that Campobasso came to France with the Anjou prince, is erroneous according to this. The condottiere belonged to the Aragonese party. In Naples the defeat at Nancy was ascribed to his treason, Cronaca, 1. c. p. 133.
