The Signature - Léopold not Louis

Correspondence with Charles Girard:

Question
In Doc 635 Leopold Verguet signs himself L Verguet and you fill it in as L(ouis) Verguet
Is that a slip or did his family call him Louis, hence his deliberately ambiguous signoff?

Congratulations on discovering yet another error. While it's too late to include in volume 10's list of errata, I am correcting the master copy on my computer. Your are right in observing that Verguet's first name is Leopold (and not Louis). The "slip" was my fault, not Verguet's.
