Was he shot in Hamburg? The French Wiki does not mention this. Robert Prummel —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.212.4.35 (talk) 00:22, 22 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

He wasn't. 'He fell a victim to the gout.' ^[1] '[H]e was preparing to return in France when he died in Hamburg.' Neither contemporary nor modern sources have him shot. I suppose Kelly had the duc d'Aiguillon mixed up with the duc d'Enghien. Mapple (talk) 18:26, 12 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
