the title block does not seem to like accents, does it? i should throw a few e s up there.

marquis de sade was in the bastille, also the man in the iron mask?

[i]four forgers arrested under warrants issued by the Grand Châtelet court; James F.X. Whyte, an Irish born "lunatic" suspected of spying and imprisoned at the request of his family; Auguste-Claude Tavernier, who had tried to assassinate Louis XV 30 years before; and one "deviant" aristocrat suspected of murder, the Comte de Solages,[28] imprisoned by his father using a lettre de cachet.

A previous prisoner the Marquis de Sade had been transferred out ten days earlier,

so i have been misinformed. the guy in the mask may have been fictional, but was he louis's twin?
