Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Chartres
Nous ne d�tenons pas de bien v�ridiques documents sur ces deux basiliques; tout au plus, savons - nous que le gouverneur romain du pays de Chartres d�molit de fond en comble la premi�re, �gorgea un grand nombre de chr�tiens, au nombre desquels sa fille Modeste, et fit jeter leurs cadavres dans un puits creus� pr�s de la grotte et qui a re�u le nom de puits des saints-forts.
