[edit] Possible source

I came to this page to read up on Sanson after running across his name in an ethics paper by Arthur Isak Applbaum. He makes reference to him as a good executioner but an evil man with references to Applbaum's 1995 and 1999 papers. I don't have these papers at my disposal but I figured someone who is working on this page might appreciate the reference. Warhorus 17:44, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Henri Sanson

I would like to mention that I have a contemporary newspaper of Louis XVI death, it is reported in the paper that the executioner was called Henri Sauson. I do not know if this is a reporting error as if you say Sanson with a French accent it does sound like Sauson.

I just thought that I would add this to see if anyone knows anymore as to whether this is correct or just the reporters error.
