A history of French architecture from the death of Mazarin till the death of Louis XV, 1661-1774 . 05, a workman in the Chapel fell aheight of 55 feet and received 60 francs in consideration of his havingbeen twice trepanned.^ The building of the Chapel proceeded in a leisurelj way. Themasonry alone occupied more than five years, and it was not till 1704* Comptes, iv, 449, 709. ^ Ibid., iv, 449. Ibid., iv, 1240, the usual gratification for injuries such as a broken leg was30 francs. Though the supervision was careless, the employers liability was recognizedin a way. The King was humane and not intentionally unjust, and there are manyentries in the Comptes of compensations and of payments for little plots of land tosmall owners at Versailles, Marly and elsewhere, which disprove the idea that Louis XIVwas a merely arbitrary despot. In the same account is an entry of payments to themessenger who brought the Royal orders to Mansart in his chateau at Sagonne beyondBourges. In 1705 Mansart was about the most powerful person in the court ofLouis XI\. Ibid., iv, 1043, 1048-49. Pi,. ILJLA I. ir. 210. 211] 1^1,.
