Planchart : Louis Courtin, Louis de Cambrai: was a small vicar from 01 July 1473 to 30 October 1481 and from 21 July 1483 to 14 March 1491 [LAN, 4G 7472 (1473-74), 6r; (1481-82), 5v; (1490-91), 7r; 4G 7473, 8v]. On 19 December 1477 he collated the chaplaincy at the altar of SS Cosmas and Damian on the death of Pierre Daule [CBM 1061, 35r], and from 1477-78 to 1483-84 he held the chaplaincy of St. Christopher as a foreign chaplaincy [LAN, 4G 6955. 39r; 4G 6963, 42v]. He joined the grand community of chaplains in 1484-85 and appears in the lists until 1500-01 [LAN, 4G 6965, 13v; 4G 6985, 34v]. He is still documented as a chaplain in 1506 [LAN, 4G 652]. His possession of two other chaplaincies is documented: on 26 September 1492 he collated the chaplaincy at the altar of St. John Baptist on the death of Jehan Verdure and resigned the chaplaincy at the altar of St. Martial to Jacques Canivet, clerk of the revestiary [CBM 1062, 20r]. For over a decade the canons had to reprove him on and off for wearing his hair long like a layman [CBM 1061, 124r; 1063, 153r, 165v], and twice he was accused of rape [CBM 1061, 135v, 170r]. The first of these, on 28 October 1481, cost him his vicariate and is the reason for the hiatus in his service.
