The Taking Saumur Frightened The Convention Much More Than Any Of The
Previous Victories Of The Vendeans. The Republicans Lost A Vast Quantity
Of Military Stores, Arms, Gunpowder, Cannons, And Soldiers' Clothing;
And, Which Was Much Worse Than The Loss Itself These Treasures Had
Fallen Into The Hands Of An Enemy, Whose Chief Weakness Consisted In The
Want Of Such Articles. The Royalists Since The Beginning Of The Revolt
Had Always Shewn Courage And Determination In Action; But They Had Never
Before Been Collected In Such Numbers, Or Combated With Forces So Fully
Prepared For Resistance, As Those Whom They Had So Signally Conquered
At Saumur.
