On the Monday following the meeting at Durbelli猫re, Larochejaquelin, Denot, the Cur茅 of St. Laud1, Foret and Cathelineau joined M. de Lescure at Clisson, and on the day afterwards, the soldiers of the Republic, when attempting to collect the conscripts at a small town near Clisson, were resisted and treated as they had been at St. Florent. There was not quite so much of a battle, for the officer in command knew what was likely to occur, and not having received any reinforcement of troops, thought it advisable to give in early in the day, and capitulate with the honours of war. He was allowed to march his men out of the town, each man having stipulated2 that he would not again serve in any detachment sent into La Vend茅e for the collection of conscripts; but they were not allowed to take their arms with them, muskets4, bayonets, and gunpowder5 being too valuable to the insurgents6 to be disregarded. So the soldiers marched unarmed to Nantes, and from thence returned, before two months were over, in spite of the promises they had given, and requited7 the mercy of the Vendeans with the most horrid8 cruelties.
The people were equally triumphant9 in many other towns. In Beauprieu, Coron, Ch芒tillon, and other places, the collection of conscripts was opposed successfully, and generally speaking, without much bloodshed. In Coron, the military fired on the people, and killed three or four of them, but were ultimately driven out, In Beauprieu, they gave up their arms at once, and marched out of the place. In Ch芒tillon, they attempted to defend the barracks, but they found, when too late, that they had not a single day’s provisions; and as the townspeople also knew this, they were at no pains to besiege
