[121] Bonivard places its origin in 1518, and writes _Eiguenots_. (_Chroniq._ ii. p. 331.) The Registers of the Council have it under the date of 3rd of May, 1520, and read _Eyguenots_. In 1521 we find in the trial of B. Toquet, _Ayguinocticæ sectæ_. (Galiffe, _Matériaux_, &c. ii. p. 164.) We come upon it later in 1526: _Traitre Eyguenot_. (Ibid. p. 506.) In the same year: _Tu es Eguenot_. (Ibid. p. 508.) Lastly, Michel Roset in his Chronicle (liv. i. ch. lxxxix.) generally writes _Huguenot_. In the sixteenth century as well as in the nineteenth nicknames have often passed from Geneva to France.

(See also Savyon, _Annales_, p. 61.) This circumstance has been the subject of a long archæological controversy, whose solution is simply this: Pécolat did not cut off, he only cut, his tongue.

[389] The official Registers of the Council (Dec. 22) say: ‘Bandière leading three or four boys.’ Syndic Balard, an eye-witness, says: ‘Bandière, accompanied by the children of some of those who have retired to Germany.’ (_Journal_, p. 34.) Bonivard says the same, _Chroniq._ ii. p. 435. It is therefore a mistake in a writer, otherwise very learned in the history of Geneva, to say that: ‘There was not a single little child with him.’ (Galiffe, _Matériaux_, &c. ii. p. 334.) His son did not fall into the same error. (Galiffe fils, _Besançon Hugues_, p. 277.)
