Note 2

"He was assassinated in the royal villa at Chelles. One day when he was returned from the chase just as twilight was falling, he was alighting from his forse with one hand on the shoulder of a servant, when a man stepped forward, struck him with a knife under the armpit and then stabbed him a second time in the stomach. This was the end of this wicked man." Quote from Gregory of Tours.
