N'accepte-t-il pas trop complaisamment certaines légendes populaires? J'ai relevé en note quelques-unes de ses inexactitudes, et, quant à' la prise du château au 10 août, il ne semble pas avoir été dans les. Rangs des assaillants, puisqu'à ce moment-là il siégeait très probablement à l'hôtel de Ville comme membre dela; Commune insurrectionnelle.
