[Footnote 6:] [Jean] de Roye is the only contemporary to tell this story. Both Toutey and Kirk reject it. (See Toutey, p. 76; Kirk, ii., 271.)]
[Footnote 7:] [Toutey's] suggestion.]
[Footnote 8:] [All] sons inherited their father's title, so that there were many landless lords.]
[Footnote 9:] [At] this period there were eight in the confederation, which was a loose structure in which each member preserved her individuality.]
[Footnote 10:] [See] Toutey, p. 82, who quotes from the Cartulaire de Mulhouse, iv., et passim. This last furnishes the details for these passages.]
[Footnote 11:] [In] this account Toutey's conclusions are accepted. There are discrepancies as to dates among the various chroniclers. The duke's itinerary as given in Comines-Lenglet (ii., 211) does not agree with that of Knebel and others. But the facts of the narrative are little affected by the variations. The following is the itinerary accepted by Toutey:

[Footnote 12:] [Kirk] considers that they are well founded and too indecent to repeat.]
