The following work by Mgr Lucien-Léon Lacroix, Monsieur Bieil, directeur de Saint-Sulpice: notes et souvenirs, failed to mention anything about Rennes-le-Château parchments, Alfred Lilley, or Abbé Saunière; or that Bieil was related to Émile Hoffet (Éditions P. Lethielleux, 1903; also serialized in La Quinzaine: Revue Litéraire, Artistique et Scientifique, 1903).

The more the myths of Rennes-le-Château are subjected to analysis, the more they fade away and disappear.
