Notes

  • Monsieur De Chandieu, was a very learned French Divine: His Works are, 1. The Marks of the True Church. 2. De L'Ʋnique Sacrifice. 3. Contra les Traditions, &c. in Follo. He was Lord of Chandieu, and Baron of Cha∣bot, chosen by the Church of Paris to be their Pastor at Twenty Years of Age, and Moderator of this National Synod at Twenty three: A Gentleman of eminent Piety and Gravity. He was desired by the King of Navary to be his Pa∣stor; and upon his Death removed to Geneva, where he was called to the Pastoral Office in that City, and discharged it with very great fidelity. He never took any Wages for his Work in the Ministry. He wrote himself, Sadeel; which is the Hebrew of Chandieu, The Field of GOD. He died of an Hectick Fever, in the 57th Year of his Age, saith Mr. Du Thou; but he was mistaken, for it was in the 63d, Anno 1591. Melchior Adams hath writ his Life, among his Theolog. Exteri.
