[5] There is some uncertainty where La Fayette slept that night.
Lacretelle says it was at the "Maison du Prince de Foix, fort eloignee du
chateau." Count Dumas, meaning to be as favorable to him as possible,
places him at the Hotel de Noailles, which is "not one hundred paces from
the iron gates of the chapel" ("Memoirs of the Count Dumas," p. 159).
However, the nearer he was to the palace, the more incomprehensible it is
that he should not have reached the palace the next morning till nearly
eight o'clock, two hours after the mob had forced their entrance into the
Cour des Princes.

[11] As early as the second week in October (La Marck, p. 81, seems to
place the conversation even before the outrages of October 5th and 6th;
but this seems impossible, and may arise from his manifest desire to
represent Mirabeau as unconnected with those horrors), Mirabeau said to La
Marck, "Tout est perdu, le roi et la reine y periront et vous le verrez,
la populace battra leurs cadavres."
