Catinat, followed by ten of his men, pursued the flying troops as far as the plain of Calvisson.

There they were able to rally, thanks to the advance of the garrison to meet them.
Eighty dragoons lay dead on the field of battle, while Cavalier had only lost five men.
As we shall see, Cavalier was not only a brave soldier and a skilful captain, but also a just judge.

A few days after the deed of arms which we have just related, he learned that a horrible murder had been committed by four Camisards, who had then retired into the forest of Bouquet.

He sent a detachment of twenty men with orders to arrest the murderers and bring them before him.

The following are the details of the crime: The daughter of Baron Meyrargues, who was not long married to a gentleman named M.de Miraman, had set out on the 29th November for Ambroix to join her husband, who was waiting for her there.
