is printed in Latin only, containing all the services 
for the year. 
The Livre d'Eglise de Reims is therefore the 
Missale Remense, accompanied by the translation 
in French of the numerous services of the Roman 
Catholic Church as used in the diocese of Rheims. 
The following quotation from the “ Extrait du 
Privilége” in the Missale Remense, folio, printed 
at Rheims in 1620, will convey a very good notion 
of the contents of what is called a grand missel or 
prayer-book : 
“Le roy en faueur de Monseigneur I’Illustrissime et 
Reuerendissime Cardinal de Guyse Archeuesque Due de 
Reims a permis et permet & Iean de Foigny, Imprimeur 
et Marchand Libraire en |’Vniuersité de Reims, d’im- 
primer, faire imprimer, vendre et debiter les vsages des 
Prouinces et Diocese dudit Reims, consistant en Messels, 
Graduels, Antiphoniers, Breuiaires, Epistoliers, Diurnaux, 
Processionaux, Heures, Catechismes, Instructions, et autres 
Liures concernans les dits vsages, ensemble les Coustumes 
des Bailliages de Vermandois et Victri, en Pertois, pour 
le temps et espace de neuf ans, & commencer du jour 
qwils seront acheuez d'imprimer, deffend & tous de quel- 
que qualité et condition qu’ls soient, d’imprimer ou faire 
imprimer ny mettre en vente durant le dict temps lesdits 
Vsages et Coustumes,” &c. “ Données & Paris le seiziesme 
jour de May, mil six cens vingt. Signées par le Roy en 
son Conseil. — ReNovarp.” 
The liber ecclesiasticus from which the above is 
extracted, was bequeathed in 1710 to the library 
of St. Génévieve at Paris, by Charles Maurice Le 
Tellier, formerly Archbishop of Rheims. This 
worthy prelate revised a new edition of the 
Missale Remense (Parisiis, excudebat Franciscus 
Muguit, primarius Typographus Regis, 1688), in 
the Introduction to which he also employs the ex- 
pression in question : 
“Cum primum Sanctze Remensis Ecclesise, Deo volente, 
gubernationem suscepimus, inter graves ac multiplices 
muneris nostri curas, hec non inferior fuit, ut que ad di- 
vinum cultum pertinent, ea qua par est dignitate tracta- 
rentur; et si qua pro rerum ac temporum conditione de- 
fuissent, in integrum restituerentur. CQuapropter cum 
intellexissemus librorum Ecclesiasticorum, quorum in rebus 
sacris usus est, rara admodum in nostra urbe superesse 
exemplaria; continuo dedimus operam, ut ejusmodi libri, 
adhibitis ex nostra Ecclesia viris piis et doctis peritisque 
Typographis, emendatiores et elegantiores recuderentur,” 
ry 
There have been several editions subsequent to 
the two mentioned above: but I think I have 
stated enough to place in a clear light the dis- 
tinction between a Livre d'Eglise and a Liber 
Ecclesiasticus, in the sense of a Romish church- 
service book. 
I append as a tail-piece to Les Commandemens 
de Dieu (cited by F.C. H. at p. 379.) the Com- 
mandemens de UEglise, also in a versified form; 
and likewise used all over France : 
“ Les Commandemens de U Eglise. 
“1. Les fétes tu sanctifieras, 
Qui te sont de commandement, 
NOTES AND QUERIES.

Les dimanches Ja Messe ouiras, 
Et les fétes pareillement. 
Tous tes péchés confesseras, 
A tout le moins une fois l’an. 
Ton Créateur tu recevras, 
Au moins & Paques humblement. 
. Quatre-temps, Vigiles, jetineras, 
Et le Caréme entiérement.

Ni le samedi mémement.”

Paris, 
BASHETT. 
(2"4 S. i. 382.) 
M. E. is thanked for his suggestion ; the simi- 
larity is worthy of notice. The name “ Baschet” 
is French, but I have it from good authority that 
one of the ancestors was English, and followed 
King Jobn of France when he returned home 
after being ransomed ; he became the founder of 
the Baschet family in France, but in what part of 
France I cannot determine. I have often en- 
deavoured to obtain a list of those gentlemen who 
followed King John to France, but without suc- 
cess. The question was put twice in this valuable 
publication ; but it remains as yet unanswered. It 
may have been spelt Béche in the time of the 
Conquest, Anglicised into Bache, and from that 
into Bashett; then, returning into France with 
John (time, May 8, 1360, date on which he re- 
turned), it may have again been converted into 
“ Bachet.” ‘There is a tamily of Bachet De Mey- 
serid, or Meziriac and Val-luisant. Their lands 
and property were purchased from the great and 
powerful family De La Baume Montrerel. Their 
arms are Sable, a triangle or, on a chief azure 3 
mullets of the second. Crest, a unicorn argent. 
Motto, Nescit labi virtus. The founder of the 
family was Stephen Bachet, under Victor Ama- 
deus I. of Savoy, from whom descended in right 
line Peter Bachet, Counsellor and Lieut.-General 
of Bresse under Henry II. of France ; he married, 
in 1540, Frances De Soria, daughter of Antony 
De Soria, a Portuguese gentleman. Peter Bachet 
was alive in 1565. His successor and son was 
John Bachet, also Counsellor of Bresse, was living 
in 1586, and had for sons Claude Gaspard Ba- 
chet and William Bachet (William died without 
posterity). Claude G. Bachet was born at Bourg, 
in Bresse, October 9, 1581. (He died February 
26, 1638.) He was in Paris under Louis XIII, 
returned to Bourg, and married Philiberte De 
Chabeu, daughter of Claude De Chabeu, écuyer 
Du Puget, from which union (amongst others) 
was John Bachet, president at the court of 
Bresse, who died in February, 1708, aged eighty- 
one, leaving two sons, who entered the army. 
(Here further trace is lost.) 
The “ Bachets” were ennobled under Henry II,
