	Camisards
		On the 8th of March, 1715, by medals and a proclamation, Louis XIV announced the entire extinction of the sect.
		The Synod of Nîmes, 1715, enacted two statutes, evidently aimed at the Camisards: that women and unauthorized persons be debarred from preaching; and that Holy Scripture be adopted as the sole rule of faith and source of preaching.
		Catholics, too, organized under the name of White Camisards, or Cadets of the Cross, the better to check the fl Camisards, but they soon fell into atrocities similar to those they sought to punish, and were disowned by Montrevel.

		As the news of the defeat spread, the Camisard chiefs and soldiers becoming convinced that the Lord had hidden His face from them, surrendered one by one.

		The infantry formed, the cavalry sprang to their saddles, Cavalier leaped on his horse, and drawing his sword, led his soldiers as usual against the dragoons, and these, as was also usual, ran away, leaving twelve of their number dead on the field.
		The Camisard cavalry soon gave up the pursuit, as they found themselves widely separated from the infantry and from their leader; for Cavalier had been unable to keep up with them, his horse having received a bullet through its neck.
		Carried on by the rapidity of their course, the Camisards could not pull up till they were within a hundred yards of the enemy; they fired once, killing several, then turned round and retreated.

		Finally, the Camisard prophets called for and directed violent rebellion against the Church and those royal officials who were assumed to protect and promote it.
		As Joutard, Bosc, and others have argued, the Camisard war was an immensely complex event with many causes, of which the threatened kidnapping of Protestant children was only one.

		This peaceful landscape over the hills of Saint-Germain-de-Calberte and up to the Mount Aigoual typifies the area the Camisard Rebels roamed in the early 18th century, singing psalms and propheletising, ambushing King Louis XIV dragoons, burning churches and gathering for prayers in huge "Assemblées du Désert".
		Men, women and children were massacred or tortured and executed, or sent to the galleys or to the Tour de Constance in Aigues-Mortes.
		Out of an upper window Du Chayla and his men lowered themselves into the garden by means of knotted sheets; some escaped across the river under the bullets of the insurgents; but the archpriest himself fell, broke his thigh, and could only crawl into the hedge.

	Fatio, Lesage, and the Camisards
		In the early 1700’s the leaders of the movement, notably Durand Fage, Jean Cavailier, and Elie Marion, fled to England and formed a prophetic sect, speaking in tongues, preaching the immanent end of the world, and claiming the ability to raise the dead.
		Fatio, who was himself a Protestant exile of sorts, had always been sympathetic to the Camisards, and joined with the exiled prophets when they arrived in London in 1706.
		It is not unlikely that the exiled boy and his family would have been aware of Fatio, if only because of the highly publicized trial of the Camisard leader Elie Marion and his associates, which would have been a focus of interest for fellow Protestant exiles.

		A small group of French "enthusiasts," or charismatics, known as the Camisards and led by Jean Cavalier were exiled to England in 1706.

	Études Théologiques & Religieuses/2002 : numéro 3/LA GUERRE DES CÉVENNES (1702-1707) - CAMISARDS, CATHOLIQUES ...
		For a long time, the historiography of the war of Cévennes had focuses solely on the actions of the Camisard thus leaving aside the numerous other elements of the war and therefore presenting it as a bilateral war in Bas-Languedoc thus closely following the distinction in religion between Catholics and Protestants.
		Yet while displaying at the same time the marks left by the previous religion wars, the polymorphous aspect of the monbilization of the original Catholics implies that we need to go beyond the vision of the war of Cévennes as a conflict only consisting in the actions led by the Camisards.
		Therfore, it is also necessary to go beyond the scope of religious alliances in order to study the more ambiguous role of civilian Catholic populations who cannot be considered as belonging only to the royal troups or clergy, a view which is too often held by historiographs.
