It was an extremely uncomfortable experience for Chasles since he had to admit in court that he had purchased documents supposedly written by Galileo , Cleopatra and Lazarus and how someone of Chasles's intelligence and a deep interest in history would have believed that these all these wrote in French is beyond belief! Vrain-Lucas was found guilty and Chasles, although 77 by this time, must have looked extremely silly.
See oli väga ebameeldiv kogemus Chasles sest ta pidi tunnistama, kohtus, et ta oli ostetud dokumendid väidetavalt kirjutatud Galileo, Cleopatra ja Laatsaruse ja kuidas kellegi Chasles luure ja sügav huvi ajaloo oleks uskunud, et need kõik need kirjutas prantsuse on arusaamatu! Vrain-Lucas on süüdi ja Chasles, kuigi 77 selleks ajaks, peab olema tutvunud väga rumal.
