In xvi. 40, Froissart makes a mistake in saying that the body of the Comte d’Eu was ‘en ung sarcus rapporté en France et ensevely en l’eglise Saint-Laurent d’Eu, et là gist moult honnourablement’. The tomb in St. Laurent is merely a memorial. Philippe was buried in the chapel of a monastery in Galata, where, seven years later, Clavijo, fol. 17 vº, saw his burial-spot, but unmarked. His tomb is described by Bulladius, who saw it in 1647, in his notes to Bonn ed. of Ducas, p. 560. Cf. Mordtmann, _Beiträge zur osmanischen Epigraphik_, I, in _ZDMG._ (1911), lxv. 103.

[555] Jean de Nevers, as Duc de Bourgogne and leader of the faction against the king’s brother, openly accepted the responsibility of the assassination of the Duc d’Orléans. This was the beginning of the Burgundy-Armagnac civil war, which delivered France to the English until Jeanne d’Arc appeared to awaken the French to a feeling of nationality.

Jireček, _Gesch. der Bulg._, p. 323, says that at this time ‘Osmanen erschienen in Attika’. He has mistaken roving Turkish corsairs of Sarukhan or Aïdin for the Osmanlis. It must have been these Turks who attacked Thebes. [558] For the deliverance of the grand master of Rhodes, Jean Ferdinand d’Hérédia: Ducange, viii. 296. [559] _Chron. Breve_ at end of Ducas, p. 516.

[562] Muralt, under 1395 and 1397, gives the same expedition. From internal evidence of Byzantine historians, one might put the Morean expeditions in either or both of these years. But cf. _Chron. Breve_, p. 516, and the silence of the Ottoman historians on an expedition in 1395. [563] Chalc., II, p. 67; Seadeddin, i. 192. [564] Chalc., II, p. 67; Seadeddin, i. 192. [565] _Chron.

[568] Hammer describes the capture of Athens in 1397 in i. 350, and again in 1456 in iii. 51.
