Note E

Castelluzzo is a bold rock, which crowns the summit of Mont Vaudelin in the Valley of Lucerna, in which there is formed a natural cavern, where three or four hundred Vaudois were wont to take refuge in the hour of persecution. The entrance was so narrow as only to admit one person at a time, it had a fountain of water, and was spacious enough to contain a large supply of provisions and ammunition.
